G'day Morrie,
In Oct 2010 you asked for the death dates of William & Mary Ann (nee Ellis) Bolger & their children. My research shows - William probably died in Ireland prior to 1828, Mary Ann d. 25/3/1842 in Melbourne, Mary Ann d. 30/11/1869 in Brighton, Victoria, Charlotte (Greene) d. 10/8/1882 in South Melbourne, Eliza Jane d. 6/3/1872 in St Kilda, Edward Ellis probable death June 1842 aboard the 'Edward' between Circular Head & Launceston, Theophilus Henry d. 6/10/1899 at Petersham NSW, Frances (Pittman) d. 29/3/1862 at Brighton, Vic, Harriet (Smith) d. 5/12/1861 at St Kilda, Robert d. at sea April 1850 & Emily (Pittman) d. 22/2/1878 at Melbourne.
I hope that this helps.
Cheers

G'day jenjen
I have done extensive research on the Bolger family and would be happy to assist you. Robert Bolger died in April 1850 at sea. He was a crew member aboard the Lady Denison which disappeared whilst travelling from Launceston to Adelaide. It is possible that the 14 prisoners who were aboard may have taken control of the ship. Robert Bolger & Annie Geary had 3 children but only the son married. Robson Ebenezer T(h)omlinson died 10/4/1856. He & Annie had 3 children. I also have George Bishop buried in West Terrace. I believe that Annie & George Bishop also had a son, Felix, on 23/3/1862 but I have been unable to find out what happened to him.
Please let me know if there is any way I can assist you more.
Cheers

G'day Colin,
I have found the funeral notice for Fidelis Tighe in Auckland Star, Volume LXII, Issue 255, 28 October 1931, Page 1 and the final line shows 'Friends and shipmates please accept this intimation' which indicates to me that he was a seaman. 
I believe that the first child of Edwin George Lewis & Rosa Caroline/Caroline Rosa Gibbs was Edwin Alfred Lewis. I believe that I have found his marriage to Edith Hodgson in 1908 and 1911 shows that they have a daughter named Alice Edith. The 2nd son, George H Lewis remains a mystery at this time. Their daughter, Lily Elizabeth may have married John H. Norfolk in 1915.  If I have the right marriage then Lily Elizabeth may have died in 1973.
I hope that this helps and we will continue our search for the death of Edwin George Lewis.
Cheers
Lesley

Fidelis Tighe did die in New Zealand in 1931.  Caroline (nee Gibbs formerly Lewis) travelled to NZ with their son John in 1911.  Caroline died 2/5/1913 in New Zealand.  Caroline had only two marriages - firstly to Edwin Lewis & secondly to Fidelis Tighe.  I also would like to find the death of Edwin Lewis.
My particular interest is in the Gibbs family.
Cheers
Lesley

Hi Alijet,

I've just spotted this post.   :)

I have the the Rumbelows and Watsons in my tree.  The Rumbelows in particular were a well known family in Victor Harbour.  I have photos of Mahalia and Robert Bolger and others of the Rumbelow family.  Also of the original Rumbelow family home at Victor Harbor.  More than happy to share this with you.   :D
Cheers, Chris.


G'day Chris,
Do you really have a photograph of Mahalia Bolger (form. Weymouth nee Rumbelow)?  She was my husband's g-grandmother and I would love to see a photo of her.
Cheers
Lesley

I am looking for a Bolger family, that could be this lot.
 Children 6 daus and 3 sons of William Bolger and Mary Jane Ellis who sailed from Kingston Ireland to WA in 1830.
Mary Jane's brother Theophilus Ellis sailed with them, he died in 1834.
The family were said to have settled in Tas and WA.
Any info welcome
Morrie


I am sure that I can help you with information about the Bolger family, Morrie. 
What would you like to know? 
Mary Jane Bolger (nee Ellis) should be Mary Ann.  I do have a copy of her death certificate.

Cheers
Lesley
