Hello Jeremy
I finally have a bit of time to look at family history matters again.
I have come across your 2010 post on RootsChat offering to provide information about Joseph Gullick and Mary Clifford who married in 1760.  These are my direct ancestors but I know nothing about them apart from the names of their children and when they were baptised. Their daughter Mary, born 1763, was my link to them and I have a lot of information about successive generations.
Hope you are still working on your family history.
Merry Christmas
Elizabeth

Hi Anne
Could I please ask another favour in relation to the Sibton parish records?  Would you mind very much looking to see if there was a baptism of John Gooch (husband of Honour Tunmer) in about 1728?
Thanks so much
Elizabeth

Hi Anne
Thank you very much for looking.  Could you tell me if the Sibton registers for the relevant periods were available  or were any missing for those dates?  I will place a look-up request for the same events but in Mickfield asap.
Regards
Elizabeth

Hello Jude
I am replying via the RootsChat forum as well as personally because I'm not sure if you receive my personal messages sent via RootsChat.
Yes, Pam and I have discovered Trove and found it a goldmine of family history information. As you mentioned that there was an article about the drowning of Eleanor Wran, I had a look and found one (attached) which was also reproduced in other places such as Melbourne.
William Conyngham Ussher was the son of Sarah (nee Talbot) and Henry Ussher.  That means he was Philip Talbot's grandson. Philip also left property to Colin Campbell Cameron, another grandson.
Sarah and Henry Ussher moved to Mount Morgan, as did their daughter Elizabeth Annie Ussher and her husband Edward Barwon Gooch.  Elizabeth and Edward Gooch were my great grandparents.  I knew that they had lived at Yatton as my grandfather, Percy, had been born there, with his father a publican at the time. My father was born in Mount Morgan.
I didn't know that Sarah Ussher had been a partner in Joe Butler and Co cordial company.  Very interesting.  How did you come across that information?  It seems there is a bit I don't know about Sarah as you also told me that she had a boarding house in St Lawrence.
Any more interesting items of information that you recall would be most appreciated.
Regards
Elizabeth

Hello Jude
Thanks for the tip.  If we finish soon enough, we'll consider entering this year.  Did you receive the email I sent to your personal email address through RootsChat?
