HI All
any information on Edward Pharo born around 1843 in Wandsworth Surrey. Parents were Aaron and Susanna (nee Jurd). They came to Sydney in 1885 on the Bombay. Any history of the family before 1885 - especially his parents births and siblings - would be gratefully received.

This is the only Aaron Pharo showing on 1861. May be the correct person with a second marriage. Keep it just in case.

you beauty! that's his grand parents and uncles/aunts etc - could you check for another Aaron - that would be his father - born about 1843. my original post was wrong - Edward was born in 1869 - its his fatehr Aaron that was 1843 - should have double checked my facts.
But, Hey, you still found his grand parents despite my error - thanks so much Tricia

tricia you're a star
Thomas Jurd is Susannah's father. And he's born in middlesex - that's were I will look for Susanah's birth.
The dates of Edward and George agree with the ages listed on the passenger list for "Bombay" which arrived in 1885 Sydney. We have the right family for sure. Excellent - three generations in one nigth - thanks so much

wow - I am going out and buying a lottery ticket - with luck like this I can't lose.
The amazing part is that I got this tip from a newly located elderly relative tonight - I've gone from "wow, "pharo" what a great name" to three generations in the one night.
Isn't it great that the long droughts of no new discoveries are interspersed with nights like this.
thanks soooooooo much

I am very new to this...my name is Genellle G I am a Pharo descendant. Very close. Mother's maiden name is Pharo. I have been to Guernsey and have the birth cert of Annie Beatrice (this is Beatrice is not what was on the cert however) Brown.
My mother is on the phone now....we are talking about your research. Probably could help. My mother is HILTON PHARO's (his father was Edward and his Grandfather was Aaron) daughter.

Good morning Kim and Genelle
I see you are online at the moment Kim - it's a long time since this thread was active. I don't know how much further you have got with this family but I have had another go and found this in 1851
1851
Lyne Road Chertsey Surrey
Elijah Smithers Head Widower 65 Carpenter born Chertsey Surrey*
Sarah Smithers dau 22 born Chersey Surrey
Aron Pharo Grandson 5 born Chersey Surrey
HO107/1593 Folio 245 Page 13
Now, since those early days on Rootschat I now have access to the original parish records for Chersey so next time I go to the records centre I will check this family out for you and try and confirm his parents as he doesn't appear on any census with them. I 've had a quick read through the thread and Smithers appears to be a twist in the equation if this is your Aaron??? I may have misread this as I am off work at the moment having suffered a blow to my head and dizziness is my main problem at the moment ;D ;D ;D - more than normal, anyway :D
If you have already found this information give me a shout and it will save a journey. If all goes well I should be able to go there this week
* Amended to show Elijah as widower and Sarah as dau*

PHARO Aaron / Ann SMITHERS
Marriage registered qrt ending June 1842

Vol 4

This is the couple from 1861 - does it make sense they have Aaron as a son
Tricia

Still can't see Aaron Pharo and Ann on the 1851 but still looking. As Aaron junior is with grandparents his parents could be anywhere mistranscribed or not!
I'll plod on

;D Yes - just realised that - Ewell is in Surrey by the way not Kent. I have seen that mistake on the census records before.
Let me know if you want me to check out the Chertsey records for any Pharo's

hi again
I want to know what diet Sarah smithers was on because in the 10 years from 1841 to 1851 she only aged 6 years! definitely the right gene pool to belong to - and the correct famiy for sure.
this time I really mean it - I'm goign to bed!
thanks for the sleuthing
