Hi there

I was wondering if there is a member out there who lives near the West Terrace Cemetery in Adelaide? I live in NSW and I have an ancestor buried there and I would love to get a photo of the headstone. Is there anyone willing to take a photo PLEASE? I have all the details to find the grave. Please email me.

Cheers

Hi Jan

Thanks for your message. It's great to have a link with someone related to Mary Jane. I too am a great great grand daughter of Mary Jane's. And I do have a photo of her too. She didn't have a happy ;life with William and separated from him. Her daughter Emma Jane Waters is my great grandmother who married Thomas Henry Booker. Their son Alfred Henry Booker is my maternal grandfather. I do have more photos of the family. My mum has actually called her home Belle Isle after Mary Jane's birthplace.

If you want to contact via my personal email it is (*)

Cheers

Tyrone / Mary Jane PURSLEY
« on: Monday 07 February 11 09:42 GMT (UK)  »
Hi there

I'mlooking for any information someone might have about Mary Jane Pursley who was born on Belle Isle, Couty Tyrone about 1834. Parents Robert and Jane. Sheimmigrated to Australia and married William James Waters in 1862. She died in Sydney in 1910.

Her father Robert was a carpenter, I have found him in a directory for Trillick listing him under Carpenters and Cartwrights in the 1860s.

I'm wondering if Robert was working on the castle on Belle Isle in the early 1830s when Mary Jane was born???

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. My mum has been searching for over 30 years to find info about Mary Jane's life in Ireland and now I have taken up the search too!

Cheers
Jo

Hi Ridgehill

I would love a copy of Sarah Hannah's birth certificate THANK YOU! Thanks for William's mother's name too as I didn't have any info about his parents. Do you have his father's name too? Was it William?

I have a photo of William and Albertine as well as a photo and transcript of the headstone in the grounds of Whatley Church if you would like me to send that to you. When I was travelling through England in the late 1980s I happened to find myself in the town of Whatley and knew we had ancestors from there so went to the church to see if I could find anything and found the headstone! What luck!

Cheers

Hi Ridgehill

Thanks for your reply. After posting you I then read some of the oter posts and realised you had found out all the info. Thanks for that info as I didn't have William and Albertine's marriage date. The 11th child was a second child named Hannah born in 1850 as the Hannah born in 1845 must have died. I am descended from their youngest child Sarah Hannah Yeoman born in 1851. Hannh seemed to be an important name in this family.

Have just registered with rootschat so am still learning to navigate my way around this website.

Cheers

Hi there

My ancestor is Albertine Rodway. She is my 2nd great grandmother on my father's side. She was born in Rode in 1807 and married William Yeoman who was born in Whatley in 1810. They had They had 11 kids. Their grave is in the front of the church in Whatley. I have been there back in the 1980s and taken a photograph of the headstone which says the following...

"To the memory of Albertine, wife of William Yeoman, who died Dec 6 1883 Aged 76 years Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord
Also of the above William Yeoman who died May 27 1886 Aged 76 years It is the Lord, let Him do what seemeth Him good.
