Hi yet again
Have noticed you also have the name Radford amongst your list - that's really strange, it's my married name. My husband's family originated from the Devon/Somerset area.

Hi again
Would be glad to forward the email address but not sure how to do it - yours has been removed from the message. Do you know how to send a personal message via this site?

Hi Leanne
Glad my information was of some help. I have to admit I haven't done most of the research myself but looking at the document I received from my Laver contact in Australia there were only a few very minor errors in the bits that I knew well, so I'm inclined to think it is all pretty accurate. (I think he employed a professional genealogist for a lot of it.)
I guess we are "cousins" of some sort if we both descend from Thomas and Mary. George did stay in England, as have most of his descendants as far as I know. My grandfather Joseph George Laver (always known as George) was the great grandson of Thomas and Mary and spent most of his life in Essex.
Which Laver do you descend from?
I have quite a bit more information about the family. If you have any specific questions I would be glad to help if I can.

Was just browsing the Laver section and saw your message about William Laver and Annie Robb. I have some information about them which I received via Bill Laver from Queensland - he has done some fairly extensive research into the Laver family and descends from this particular couple. I also have Laver ancestors, it being my mother's maiden name, and originally descending from the same Laver family.
William Laver was born in 1835 in Ridgewell, Essex and died 29th Dec 1892, Mudgeeraba, buried Nerang cemetry. His wife Annie Elizabeth Robb was born 1835 in Aberdeen, Scotland and died 12 June 1913 Gympie deep creek, buried Gympie cemetry. They were married 13 Nov 1854 at Establish Church, St Marylebone, Middlesex UK. (She was the daughter of William Robb and Mary)
William and Annie's eldest son William Henry was born 2nd Sept 1855 in London, UK but their next child Thomas (born 15th Oct 1858) was born in Australia so they obviously emigrated sometime between those two dates.
William Laver's parents were Thomas Laver born 1811 Ridgewell, Essex and Mary Rawlingson born 1812 Finchingfield, Essex.
Thomas' parents were Joseph Laver born 1761 Ridgewell, Essex and Elizabeth Meyes born 1763.
Hope this is of some use to you. I descend from William's elder brother George born 1833.
