Cornwall / Re: SINCOCK/SIMCOCK & CHENOWETH Cornwall to South Australia

Bob,
Just re-found an 8th member of teh family that came to Australia - Elizabeth's eldest sister Ann who came in 1853 with her husband John Stone, on the same ship (Janettze - a dutch barge) as two of her brothers - Charles and Daniel.

There were so many coming here, with their spouce and children. What was their interactions here during those early days?

Email following.

Bob,
Just looked up Jane 1845 and she is presumably the youngest of 6 daughters to James Bedggood. James is an older brother of your Elizabeth May (nee Bedggood) and my George Bedggood.

James came to Australia in 1849.

More if you require it.

regards
Alan

Bob,
I am descended from a brother of your Elizabeth May (nee Bedggood), whose name was George.
I dare say that you know that six of Elizabeth's siblings came to Australia to live (and die), although her youngest brother Josiah later went to New Zealand and met up with his cousins there before passing away in 1911.

I know next to nothing about the Mays in SA but I do hve a copy of Elizabeth, Charles and Josiah Mays birth certificates.

I would like to share the history of the 1850's  if you wish, but I have no yearnings to try and learn all of the May clan in SA. However, the connection and arrival of so many from the one family coming to Australia is of interest to me.

Lets see where we get to.

Hi
Iis there still anyone prepared to swap stories between the Aussie and Brit Bedggoods?
I have been a bit out of touch (last 10 years or so) with the Aussie family tree but am keen to get reactivated again.
The Brit relatives have always held a fascination but I have not had the resources to do much about it.

The internet may help with both expanding the Aussie tree and learning a bit about the Brits.

Looking forward to any response
