Australia / Re: William CARMAN/Emma Sarah ADAMS

According to this family tree John and Martha nee Mainwaring are the parents of William Carman, and Martha Springate, Thomas, John, Samuel, Elizabeth Sarah are his siblings. William is also shown as the father of more children than you have listed. You would need to check the validity of the entries.

Perhaps there is something in the SA Pioneers index about the family?

Australia / Re: Mary Ann CARR Tasmania

There are these following threads about Mary Ann Carr and her husband James Warren. Please note that the first thread says that Mary Ann Carr may have arrived in aboard the Barque "Merope". Can someone else on rootschat reseach that one?

Curious Ted, why would you choose Dandenong based on information given by a third party on a death certificate when first party information is different?

Michael Moore stated in 1880 on Cornelius's birth registration that the marriage was on 8 Jan 1879 at Cranbourne.

Margaret Corbett stated in 1894 on Ada's birth registration that the marriage was on 8 Jan 1879 at Sherwood (part of Cranbourne).

Is he supposed to have immigrated to Australia with his wife Agnes and sons Alpha and Raymond, or on his own?

in which you were involved and you would have surely read the explanation.
 
Incorrect assumption.

The thread is no longer available

No longer available means that whatever information it contained is no longer accessable.

Mmmm... will my sense of humour be appreciated, or will I hear the sighs from afar...

So if the transcription error in the following
Corbett, Ada Woodland
Father: Corbett
Mother: Margt Corben
1894
Cranborne
#19835R

was ever fixed to read
Corbett, Ada Woodland
Father: Corbett
Mother: Margt Corbett
1894
Cranborne
#19835R

does that mean that the index number would become 19835RR? (First R for Repeat, and second R for revision of a transcription error.)

I think the "R" on the index for Ada's birth is the revision of Margaret's birth surname  on the document

There is no revision of Margaret's birth surname on the document.

There is, however, a transcription error in the index for Margaret's birth surname - Corbett and Corben.

I have provided a full transcription of the birth registration previously.

I understand that those two indexes are available at Ancestry as part of the subscription members of Ancestry pay.

I am very sorry JM but I am unsure of the meaning of what you were trying to say.

Yes these two indexes may be incomplete in that they may not include every death record in Victoria, but they do include many many of the deaths records in Victoria. I use the first index all the time to order death registrations of Vic BDM as it gives the index number. So much better then paying $1 a time to do a search for the index number on Vic BDM itself. With the second index I find many deaths that do not appear on the first.

Then of course there are the many deaths that do not appear on either index, and that those on rootschat who have access to even better indexes than these cannot find a death record for either. The missing deaths that cause so many headaches...

So in no case if I have understood you correctly Raylen does R = revision. It either means multiple entries (Repeat) or a revision of the index (when both say 1234R and 1234) from a previous transcription error or a previous error of information entry.
