I'm not related either so really, I don't much care either way. But someone said they were going to have a look at the probate packet and that will probably sort it out either way. I don't want to have any further discussion until the probate packet for John Ward died aged 36 has been checked. I'm not going to dig him up and do a DNA test.
I am not related to the family. I am not drawing any conclusion as to the status of the couple who married in 1855. But you have not shown that the Judith Ward who married in 1855 to William McKenna had been the widow of the chap (John WARD) who died aged 36 in 1853.
I am absolutely sure that the NSW BDM does not have, nor has it ever claimed to have, every bdm record for every bdm event in NSW, particularly for the pre civil registration period.
How sure are you that the only choices anyone has in NSW would be those you have typed up?
