Australia / Re: What happened to my convict?
« on: Thursday 15 August 24 12:10 BST (UK)  »
I did some scratching and now agree - My Maria Moss was not John Everleigh's wife.  He was married to a Maria Moss however.  Poor John had a rough life and ended up in an Insane Asylum at least 2 times.
Maria,  who married William George Heales is however the 10th child of Edward and Mary Morsely. The witnesses to Marriage are all family members.  Also the Wedding address is brother Henry Thomas'. On Henry's (2nd) M/C the Father is named Edwin. The Father - Edward's D/C says profession Farmer.  Son, Henry's (2nd) M/C to Hannah Ayton has Edward a Blacksmith. He was a Blacksmith for John Archer in Tas. (May have been a Farmer also?)Thanks Poppy

Hello  - yes Jane Watkins HEALEY 73yrs in 1911;   must have been with Thomas (1864 - 1935)   and his wife Ellen Winifred CALLUM.   I don't know the ins and outs of her story except that she left Henry and went to live with Helen and Edward MOSS,   taking  the 'young ones' with her -  dying 1926 in Christchurch.  Henry went to the North Is. ???

Yes, I understand cockneyrebel but I don't know how long they had been living apart. The last child Herbert, died at 5years in 1872.  I'll  search up some writings of the 'Aunt'  I remember she said how Jane had gone to live with Helene and Edward MOSS.  More searching.  I'm now wondering if he left a Will.   On Jane Watkins Healey/HONNOR 's D/C  -Marital Status - Not Recorded.  Mother Mary Ann Welshman and Father Frederick William. ?  I don't know who gave the information but Jane was 87years.  ???????????

Hello again - 'my'   William (Henry)  HONNOR 24y;   married Jane Watkins HEALEY 20y;   13.6.1859 Episcopal Church, Dunedin.  Very little on M/C  but I have his parents Joseph HONNOR & Hannah BRAY.  Born c1835 Uxbridge. Baptised Parish Uxbridge in St. Margaret's; Borough Hillingdon. ??
Arrived on "Palmyra" Feb. 1858 - Gravesend 28.10.1857 - the Downs -  left Deal 31.10.1857 for Dunedin. 
They lived London St. Dunedin for many years then  Henry and Jane divorced 1903 in Napier, Sth Is. N.Z.    Henry must have gone to the North Is. as D/C  1906. 72years; N.Z. 48y; Married 24y; Carpenter; 7daughters & 4 sons.  Buried Herekino, Northland, North Is.  Same one?
  I'll get back to the Healeys soon, as an  Aunt ?G. Aunt  had all sorts of stories about them, which I have not been able to verify.  She thought they were aristocracy in England!  Don't know what she thought when I found the Moss/Thompson Convicts, as I had no contact with her.  It's interesting getting back into the histories, but time-consuming!

Hello cockneyrebel  - thanks again.  This game opens up more riddles then we have time to solve.   Haven't been in Fam. History for ages but a cousin of Gary's from N.Z. rang and is keen for info. So... interest rekindled.  We visited Friston and area in 2006 and saw a Moss on a memorial in the churchyard.
I presume the Henry and Emily photos are Edward moss's children.  Would just love to see them.
I really don't know what you don't know, of course, but if there is anything that I MAY know I'd love to pass it on.
You mentioned NOONAN. Edward MOSS and Helen HONNOR's child Edith married Joseph England NOONAN in Auckland.  1916.
Back in 2010 a Lord Martyn (I found on Ancestry)   and decended from emma WELCHMAN helped me enormously with that side of the Healey/Welchmans. Bye for now
