This message is a few years old but the author has photos of the headstones at Terang Cemetery including your PARNELL's.

I am helping someone with their research and discovered today that Charles Parnell b 1905 Cornwall UK mother Fanny, father Charles arrived alone in Australia in 1924.    He died in Nerring Victoria in 1954.  Could anyone help with a marriage or possible family members?  Thank you.

Oh dear back to square one then.....this is not who I was looking for.  But my Elizabeth Joan Harcombe (nee Long) also born 1915 has definite links to South Africa and visited in 1959 (by boat)
Thank you for the information

Hello Joy, I have just come around in a huge circle!  Your Alfred G Long  I have today discovered was the younger brother of my gg grandfather Robert.  (parents Alfred & Rhoda)  Roberts son (my g grandfather) is Walter Seymour Long (b 1882).  He was a police officer in South Africa!  His daughter was Elizabeth Joan (born 1915 whose mother was Adams we think)

We are just looking at some information online about the family.

I do hope you see this message

Laois (Queens) / Re: Peter Mack Stradbelly
« on: Sunday 22 December 13 22:28 GMT (UK)  »
thank you Jack. I have only just found out that most early census records for Ireland were burnt or destroyed.  Peter Mack appears on the UK 1841 census as a soldier aged 20, so I think I will have a problem finding his family.  But following your link, I have just found some Macks on the 1901 census in Rathaspick Queens the next town/area to Strathbally. These include a 74year old Ellen Mack who could I suppose be a sister in law.

Laois (Queens) / Peter Mack Stradbelly
« on: Friday 20 December 13 18:58 GMT (UK)  »
My ancestor Peter Mack was born abt 1822 in Ireland (uk census 1841-1861)and was in the British Army.  I have just discovered looking at British Army Service Records that he may have been the only Irish soldier called Peter Mack born that year, place of birth was given as Stradbelly Queens.Does anyone have any ideas if I could get any further with this? Thanks
