Australia / Photo request: JOHNSTON White Hills Cemetery
« on: Saturday 30 July 16 07:00 BST (UK) »
Was wondering if anyone would please photograph the grave of my 2x great-grandmother Muriel MacARTHUR's (nee JOHNSTON) three siblings: Jane (died 1890), Gertrude (died 1891) and Williamina (died 1885). They are located at White Hills Cemetery (Section H2, Grave 53).

Australia / SHIELDS family of Snake Valley/Linton/Ballarat
« on: Wednesday 04 December 13 10:14 GMT (UK) »
Hello
I'm looking for anyone else who is researching the Shields family. My 3x great-grandfather John Thomas Shields emigrated to Australia in 1854 with his wife Elizabeth (nee Hyatt) and baby son William. They settled in Ballarat/Linton/Carngham and had six more children: Alfred, Sarah, Mary, Ann, John (my 2x great-grandfather), George and Lillian.
John married Catherine Ann Scarf, they had nine children: Louisa, Harriet, Tom, Sarah (my great-grandmother), Albert, Catherine, Will, Ruby and Harold.
Would appreciate if any descendants would be able to provide me with any photos or info on the family.

Hi Norrie
Is there anyone buried in Kirkcaldy with the names Andrew and Harriet (nee Chalmers) Blackwood. Harriet died on 1 December 1853 aged only 52. They are my 4x great-grandparents and the parents of my 3x great-grandfather James Ferguson Blackwood, who emigrated to New Zealand in 1858.
Their infant son Andrew is also buried there, he died on 20 July 1831, but no idea if their other children William Chalmers, Alexander, Andrew II or Henry are buried there.

Hi Nicki
Great to hear of your Blackwood connection. Do you have any photos of the Blackwoods? I have a few, mostly of Havilland/Toby, Keith and his sister Anne.
Anne lives in Sydney, I will be visiting her sometime next week.

Hello
I am a descendant of John Ebenezer Black through his second wife Sarah. Their daughter Anna Elizabeth married Thomas Alfred Connor in 1897. They had two children, Lucretia and Tom. Tom was killed in the Hyde railway disaster in 1943 along with his son John.
Lucretia married Havilland Charles Rapsey Blackwood (known as Toby), their children were Keith (my grandfather) and Anne.
Lucretia died in 1947 aged only 47 and was buried in Hamilton.
Cheers

I have his birth date but no idea when he died, probably around the 1880s or 1890s. And his other children probably married, but I can't find anything on them.
