Hi Sylvia  :)

I take it there are no parents' names on his marriage certificate?

Three baptisms show up on the NSW BDM historical index search, one for a Thomas R RUSSELL (parents Thomas and Jane) and the other two for just plain Thomas RUSSELL.  The last two seem to be the same person with two different index numbers - parents Patrick and Mary A.

No birth on NSW BDM.

There are these deaths.

1926  Thomas S RUSSELL  Father  JAMES C  and mother MARIA  Died in Wollongong

1940  Sarah Ann RUSSELL  Father JAMES  and mother ELIZABETH  Died in Wollongong

Could be unrelated, of course.

Do you have their children, as found on NSW BDM? All were born in Goulburn, NSW

1878  Elsie Tuchan        THOMAS SYDNEY    SARAH ANN     
1879  Frank Charles      THOMAS S              SARAH             
1884  Lucy Elizabeth      THOMAS S             SARAH           


Could father be Frank or Charles? The C in the James C could be the Charles, yes?

I think  Charles is a good chance Jamjar.

Well done, Mariac, I just found him, too.

The date is also wrong, though.

There's also Ellen P in 1838, with the same spelling.

Yes it is wrong isnt it ? I didnt notice it before. Thats a 10yr difference. Could the index be wrong?
I cant see a  marriage for James and Maria in NSW.

Hopefully, Sylvia will enlighten us.   :-\

There are other Russells in the area at the same time as, James and Maria, but not a lot.

Interesting to note there are no  other Juchaw on  the NSw Bdm's and  that one of  the childrens middle name is Tuchan,  could  that  mean a mistranslation of Juchaw perhaps?

Hi Jenn,

I was thinking about the different spelling and have just looked on NAA. There are no  Jachaw, but are a few Juchau.

Juchau is listed on Elsie's death.

SO perhaps a transcription error  and  the surname was Juchau,  it  would be easier enough  mistake to make

So  Jamjar and Terra have seen to have sorted  out  the maiden name for Sarah.  I  feel  it  does all  help  plus  you  always get people  just googling away  looking for ancestors  and  it will  only  lead more people to Rootschat.

Yes, I think so. I can see how one could get Tuchan out of Juchau.  :)

This  link  Mention  Mr Juchau and Murrurindi,  in  fact  if  you  put  in  Juchua  you  get quite a bit of reading.

thanks again to all who replied .
As you say the Juchau side of the family is well documented ,the major difficulty has been to find a father for thomas sidney and his mothers maiden name.

Thanks for the PM Sylvia.

I wonder how/why she ended up in Murrurundi?

Were James C and Maria married in Tassie?

Should this still be of interest: Thomas Sydney Russell's brother was Henry Denham Russell, who was Secretary of Sydney Hospital in the 19th Century. He died in Sydney: https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/15728131 (https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/15728131). James Charles Russell died in Murrurundi: https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/13159712  (https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/13159712)
