and his 1st wife: Lillian Angela Rose (Nee KAPELL)  - (D.1915 Moree)
His 2nd wife Anastasia (Nee HUGHES) - D.1943 Moree)
      Children of Rueben & Lillian Kapell:
       1.William R Matthews (B.1907 Moree-D.1907 Moree)
       2.Leslie A B Matthews (B.1908 Moree – D.1909 Moree)
       3.Phyllis Irene L Matthews (B.1910 Moree – D.1954 Moree) (M) 1927 Moree Norman Edward 
          CUTMORE  (D.1955 Moree)
I would be grateful if you are able to help with this.    Megsy

Hi Lynette,
I have that Mary Ann Owens & Joseph Hutton married in 1881 at Walcha. The NSW BD&M files have Joseph Hutton born 1853 and parents listed as Joseph & Mary
All I have on them otherwise is a possible death for Joseph in 1930 at Tingha (NSW BD&M -18540/1930)  I see that Mary Ann died there 1909.??

I am already a guest on the Campbell Family on ancestry….Deb had added me there, I have had another look and see on Annie Hutton’s profile where your pics and name are added.   If you go onto Stella Rolfe’s picture, (that I added 5/9), you will see my name on it ….just add @bigpond.com     for my email address (a bit shy to place it here in full).. Could you email me as an ordinary mail, then we can catch up/exchange details easily, with attachments.
I replaced Stella’s younger pic, (where she was seated on Joseph Whitby’s knee), which wasn’t very clear, for my copy which was clearer.
On the back of the pic, you have there on the Masonic women – the names Fowler/Whitby are from my lot.
If you follow up on the Whitby line – Ellen Jane May Finn (my Mother) & Stanly Leech (Father) I have my brothers and sisters there as well.     Catch you soon Merren

Hi Susan,
The Jack, Louisa, Frank, G and George are buried in the small township of Elsmore (just out of Inverell) The other one William Thomas was buried in Inverell Cemetery.  I could find more details on Elsmore if you would like it.
(I guess could have just been a spelling error).
I am related to Rolfe family from Inverell, but I think there were more than one family of them, (not related to each other)
My Rolfe’s in brief are:
Elizabeth   WHITBY  BORN:  14th November, 1857 -  Armidale NSW.  DIED/BURIED:    19/9/1939 -82 yrs - Inverell NSW
MARRIED:  19th August, 1874 – Inv District
TO WHOM:    James ROLFE (B.8/9/1846 at Downham, Norfolk, ENG – Died 24/1/1936 – 89 yrs – buried Inverell Cem) (Have not sorted his parents details as yet)
CHILDREN:
1.  James               ROLFE  1874 - Inverell NSW
2.  George Joseph ROLFE   Born 1876  Inverell - Married Annie C.    HUTTON
3.  Vernon Joseph ROLFE Born  June,1882 -  Inverell NSW  - DIED: 17/8/1955 -73 yrs – Inverell  MARRIED:  1913 at Inverell   
        Eva/Edna May(Olive)HUNT
4   Emily E (Emmy) ROLFE  MARRIED:  1900 at Inverell   TO   John D. (Jack) RANKIN  (Lived at Toowoomba QLD in 1939)



Anything here look promising?   I can give more details if needed….also could list the Rolfe’s burials from my books if you would like them……….Or if you can help with the parents of James (born 1846)……..   Megsy

Hi Wisby,
I am in Aussie as well....also from the Goodfellow family

Moses wife - Jane's 1st husband - Noah Goodfellow was baptised 6/3/1803 in Fovant - buried 10/6/1829 at Fovant aged 26 years, the son of Charles (Born abt 1774) & Maria (born abt 1778) Goodfellow (have not found her maiden name).
Noah & Jane (says SMITH) but her maiden name Clarke -  married 21May1827 at St Mary, Wilton, Salisbury (as per IGI search)
Children of Noah & Jane were:
1.Anna Maria (Bapt 17Feb1828 at Fovant)   
2.Noah Goodfellow (Bapt: 7Nov1829 at Fovant) (Noah has also been recorded at times as SMITH in Australian indexes)
3. (I also have Thomas Goodfellow (Born 1832 Fovant)   - (He is noted as well on shipping record)

Then we have the marriage of Moses & Jane 26Oct1836 at Fovant.
* My connection to Moses is theie child - Ellen Goodfellow (Born 5Feb1838 in Fovant) - she was aged about 3 months old on the ship to Australia....

Back to Noah - I have not been able to connect his father Charles & mum Maria Goodfellow, except that Noah's brother Charles married Deborah Goodfellow (the sister of Moses) she was bapt' 7Aug1814 at Fovant and they married 28Feb1836 at Fovant.

Hope this helps...I have plenty more to share...    Merren (from Tweed Heads NSW)

Hi All,
Am new to rootschat, but have read the information on Moses Goodfellow from Fovant. I am also 'down under' and previously lived at Inverell NSW. Moses died on 15 January,1877 at 68 yrs -Bukkulla NSW  (near Inverell) and his wife Jane died 3/7/1885 - 80 yrs.
My line comes from his daughter - Ellen Goodfellow who was born 5th Feb,1838 - Fovant, Wiltshire, England. (Ellen was 3 months old when the family came to Australia aboard the ship 'Woodbridge' in 1838). Ellen married on 4/12/1855 – Armidale NSW to Joseph WHITBY.
I am interested in anything of the family, I do have a great deal on the Australian lines but some blanks to fill.   Moses is my GGGrandfather.
Megsy (Merren)
P.S. to CarmelMcM -   hello we were in contact some years ago, but we have both moved since...would love to catch up.
