I too am an ancestor, Agnes Isabella Symmons (later Hutchison) was my great grandmother. Do you have any information about when they came to Australia? I understand their mother Eleanor came too and they settled in Cowra NSW. Did Henry come as well?

Yes I do. My ggrandfather was Vincent Henry Symmons ,Agnes older brother.  They lived at Corowa (Cowra is another town in Nsw). I live very near Corowa and I have researched this family  extensively
Presently I am overseas and willreply in greater detail in a few weeks,

Henry died about 1880 and was buried in Bethal Green in London , so Eleanor and the younger children followed Vincent to Australia
Talk soon

HI Burns 1929

I am not so proficient myself, but I believe if you post 3 times you have access to my email address.  I really do not want to post on the open  list.   Failing this I think you could contact the moderator for advice.

cheers

Hello Burns 1929   

Thank you for your post, it has prompted me to return to researching .   My connection to the Edingtons is the Australian connection.  My gg grandmother Margaret Edington was the daughter of  James Edington and Helen Lumsden (Lumsdane) She married Robert Fisher and emigrated to Australia and they had 5 children . 
If you would like to contact me privately we can share information and discuss the connection further .
Kind regards

Re: Sharman siblings missing since 1871
Dear All

My g grandfather Charles William SHARMAN marriage certificate indicates that he was born in Northamptonshire and he was born about 1857/58 and he married in Australia in 1890 and died here in 1910.

Over the past 5 years I have searched and eliminated every Charles William Sharman and even Charles SHARMAN found in all parts of the UK following them and their families through each census.

The only one I could find that had left before 1891 census ( ie. before the 1890 marriage ) was the one that now looks like he settled in NZ.   But to ensure that I had the correct person, as I was unable to find a shipping record, I decided to find his ? siblings, hence my post.   

With the help of the list, I have achieved my aim, to ėnsure that I had the correct person".  It may not be the result I wanted, but that is why I asked the list to help out.
So I still have a "valid"mystery to solve,  what happened to my Charles William SHARMAN?? 

I am now back to the beginning and will retrace my steps to try and solve the puzzle.
I will post the result of the marriage certificate when I receive it. 

regards
Roby
