At our local family history meeting I was presented with the search for, Edward Cashen, of the Kings Plains area NSW around Bathurst.
Initial investigations, and we come up with arrival on the Southworth in 1822. Marries Mary Murphy who seems to have arrived on the "Edward".
Been down the NSW BDM route, Trove, and a variety of Google sources. Does anyone have anything extra that I might take back to my enquirer ?
One website quoted a Lor......... Pri.......... as someone also interested. Won't put on the name for privacy reasons but she was at Bigpond and now seems to have disappeared. You have helped me with Barrington Moon & Horace Melville Gordon in the recent past. Any ideas here ?
Thanks
Alan

You have found nothing on the sites mentioned?Resources page here might be a good start.Have you checked Colonial Secretary's papers?
-
Sorry!
Yes, I have found information about Cashen, including what I posted previously. I don't want to stifle replies by posting every single item I have found. Rather I would like to compare my discoveries with those of other people. A way of determining credibility.
Thanks

Thanks everyone for your help. Edward, the one who came as a convict on the Southworth, was born in Tipperary in 1796. Haven't sorted Mary Murphy out yet.
Incidentally, Warncoort, you have Chatterton & Lancashire in your profile. Pre 1955 when we came to Australia, I played daily with a Chatterton family in Waterloo Liverpool. Co-incidence !

Yes,my Chatterton line is from Liverpool though at present only a female member,though may well be connected further back.Ironically,a cousin, Violet, married Ross Chatteron in Australia.

Hi there,
NSW ER 1870 CARCOAR (a different electorate from BATHURST :) )
John Cashen, residence, King’s Plains.
NSW ER 1878 CARCOAR
Henry CASHEN, King’s Plains, residence, near Blayney
Thomas CASHEN, King’s Plains, residence, near Blayney
Edward CASHEN, King’s Plains, residence, King’s Plains
James CASHEN, King’s Plains, residence, King’s Plains
John CASHEN, King’s Plains, residence, King’s Plains
NB, I have checked both the NSW ER 1870 and the 1878 BATHURST rolls, and there’s not a CASHEN (or variations) to be seen anywhere near BATHURST :-X .
I know where King’s Plains are, but as I was born and raised in the central west, I am surprised your local family history meeting refers to Kings Plains area as ‘around Bathurst” rather than as being around Carcoar. In the 19th Century, Carcoar was quite a leading place to be, you are searching for 19th Century sightings surely :) ;) :D ;D ;D ;D ;D
So, perhaps your enquirer may be interested in searching some of the 19th century electoral rolls? These are available via NSW SL and some are also at NSW SRO.
Cheers, JM

Hi there,
V & P Legislative Assembly 1858 NSW PARLIAMENT
Edward CASHEN is a signature on the Petition seeking to restore Edward J C NORTH Esq as an Honorary Magistrate in the Town of Carcoar…
Adding:
1897 and 1900 Sands Pastoral Directory
CASHEN BROS, Mayfield (Station) , Cranbury (Post Town) , Molong (Stock District)
Cheers, JM

Yep!
You are right. When I presented the information to my enquirer he agreed Carcoar was a good bet, Plus Blayney. Also we checked Colonial Sec Papers and found our man had been sent up to Port Macquarie at one stage. Please keep looking !

G'day Alan - I don't have much to offer but would like to flag an interest in the wider Cashen territory.
My family database records a Johanna (Nancey) Cashen, b. c1832 Deansgrove, Tipp, Irl, chr 21Jun1832, m. James Fitzgerald 13Nov1853 St Francis Church, Melbourne, and d. 28Dec1901 Moonambel, Victoria.
We believe Johanna was d/o Jeremiah Cashen and Mary Ryan, about whom we know not much at all beyond children's names, but then again ... hope springs eternal, doesn't it? ;D As far as I know Jeremiah and Mary's children were Nora (b. 1816), William (b. c1819), Derby Jeremiah (b. c1821), Patrick (c1823-1886), John (b. c1825), Mary (b. c1829) and of course Johanna.
Oh ... and family documents (few though they certainly are) variously record the name as Cashen, Cashan and/or Cashin. Johanna was my wife's G-G-Grandmother.
Good luck with the search ... who knows, maybe we'll find an ancestral crossroads somewhere.

Great result!
Let me state Cashens are in no way related to me, but I volunteer at a Senior Citizens Genealogy Meeting every Wednesday. My enquirer has roots in the Kings Plains, Carcoar, Blayney areas of NSW. I will present this recent information to him next Wednesday and see what eventuates.
I will be at a 60th Birthday in Pambula in May. I may be able to bring positive feedback.
Thanks

;D So here's the beginning of a weekly "hunt" for Aussie RChatters ........ tom mix to supply the clues and ask for help with some of the missing pieces of the jigsaw ;D ;D
I like the idea ....
Sounds a bit like The Scavenger Hunts that RChat does on The Common Room....

Unfortunately :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(
I am acting as an intermediatory between the Cashens (Et al.) of the past and the Cashens of the present. It is a labour of love to provide someone with a piece of the jigsaw that makes the Family Tree more secure. But it is not my sole purpose for being in Genealogy.
You want a challenge ???? Ask me about Sarah Ellen Cahill (posted on a variety of Sites , including this one, who disappeared in Lancs England circa 1895.)
Now that would be my idea of a Hunt !!
Tom Mix (because my daughter christened my username as such!!! :-X :-X :-X

I am related to the Cashen/Cashin family tree. My Cashin branch starts with William Cashin (1776-1879) and Catherine Duggan (abt 1780). They had at least three boys, Jeremiah (1797- ), Thomas (1803-1875), and William (1809-1883).
I have seen Cashen and Cashin used interchangeably in various documents.
My wife and I visited Cashel, Tipperary, last October. We were fortunate to discover a living relative, Willie Cashin, who is the last of the Cashin family still in the Cashel area. He and I are in the process of exchanging information. His farm is in the shadow of the Rock of Cashel castle. Willie has informed me that the Cashin family has resided there in Deansgrove, Cashel for over 250 years. I would love to hear from anybody who has contact with other living Cashin family members.
regards,
Brian
