Hi Eric

Re the Irish Orphan info.  Do you know if she was per The Earl Grey Scheme?  What ship did she arrive on?

The surname RECHNER was traditionally a South Australian name at that time although Pastor Rechner did visit Horsham in 1898 to reopen the Lutheran Church according to Trove.

Hi Bitzar and Sparratt,
  first:  I am sorry about not knowing more about where these places are.  I did realise that Lake Conda was in the South Western corner of Victoria but I had no real idea of how far that was from Melbourne. 

I have been trying to work out just where I found the information re Francis Frederick  and Frederick.    My notes tell me that there is a family tree belonging to Secombe family and that is where I saw the link to Arden.  The Secombe  family are one of the DNA matches that I was following some time ago.   

Now recently I have another match for a R. Smith.   I have not completed looking at that.  but it appears to tell the same story.

Most of the family line comes down from William Walter Murray and Lila lily Atkinson but also their son Sidney John Murray born 1900. 

These below are his siblings: 

Francis Frederick Murray  1903
Frederick Murray 1905
Mollie Murray 1907
Elizabeth 'Bertina Bessie" Murray 1908
Laura Murray 1913
Wiliam Murray 1917- 1922  age 5 yrs.

1/2 siblings
Alfrred Murray  1905
Lila Murray 1907 - 1907.

Now Sidney John Murray married Hilda Zenobia Stewart . It's from this couple's children that I have a direct line to DNA matches. 

Re the marriage Cert;  I have a screen shot of it.   Nope not going to work from my computer. 
So here is the basics. 

Rec No122   
 Place: St Mary's Church Lake Conda 8 APR 1926   
Parties:   Francis Frederick Murray    --------Bachelor------ hosngh    Eucha
              Dinah Margaret Arden   --------   Spinster -----  Warnambool

Married by Banns     According to the rites of the Church of England.     They both signed
   Dinah messing up her name and having to re write 'Dinah'   

Witnessed by C M Foster   and E W Rosenwarne  [ it's scrawly so hard to read]

so   from above ----   would this be the scenario.
  Francis Frederick 1903 married Dinah Arden  and Frederick 1905 was little Frank's father with Mabel Rose --  by 1921 he would have been 16+ yrs old.   Mabel was 17  that age is on the Birth rec for Frank.

hope the above makes sense.

Who does Francis Frederick state his parents to be on the MC?

Hi Essnell,

Could you please tell us everything on the MC if you are willing to.  Does the info relate to your man?

Also Lake Condah mission is in Far SW Victoria, a 4 hour drive from Melbourne on todays roads.

There are Murray's living in Heywood, a town with a strong connection to the mission.

EDIT:  Dinah / Diana ARDEN's parents were at Lake Condah.  2 of their children were born there in the 1910's.  Other children were registered at Purnim so possibly they were residing at Framlingham mission.  A nephew of Dinah was buried at Lake Condah cemetery in 1991.

I had previously searched the ww2 records without finding either of them.

There is one Frederick Calvert Atkinson MURRAY which is alluring in the selection of names as you can see ;D !! Born 1895 I think

His father also was William. ::)

However.  I cannot frame him as the right man.

Search here

https://recordsearch.naa.gov.au/SearchNRetrieve/Interface/SearchScreens/BasicSearch.aspx

In an online tree, Frederick Calvert ATKINSON was his Aunt's (Father's sister, Ellen) husband.

When Ernst married Eliza Nobbs in 1865, HE said his father was Frederick Wiese.

Well that makes it hard now!  time for another trip back to the library

I will have to go back and check the shipping records to the Ernst who arrived in south australia 1854


Name   Ernst Wiese
Departure Age   8
Birth Date   abt 1845
Birth Place   Wandsbek, Holstein
Departure Date   18 Nov 1853 (18 Nov. 1853)
Departure Place   Hamburg, Deutschland (Germany)
Destination   Port Adelaide
Arrival Place   Port Adelaide
Relationship   Sohn (Son)
Ship Name   Iserbrook

The 'Iserbrook' arrived in Adelaide from Hamburg on 14th March 1854.  The passenger manifest only lists 'Wiese'.  Passengers arriving as couples or families are numbered as 'Schmidt 2', etc so it appears this Wiese was alone.  He would of been 9 years old so perhaps there were relatives or friends also on board.

bitzar.

EDIT:  I have also checked Adelaide incoming vessels from Germany/Danmark from 1845-1851 and no one stands out Friedrich Wiese.  There are 2 single men with that surname and also probably a third with wrongly transcribed surname.

Sussex / Re: Heathfield Marriage info.

I think that it might be a registry office marriage, the page no. on the index reference is quite high which often indicates a RO. Thomas was much older than his second wife and she had been living with him as housekeeper before their marriage, so a quick, quiet marriage some distance from home is not unusual in this circumstance. If RO you would have to order the certificate.

Thankyou for the tip.  I found her baptism today too, potentially even more of an age gap!
