Tipperary / Re: Jeremiah Dwyer, b1812 Upperchurch
« on: Tuesday 24 January 12 12:06 GMT (UK)  »
I am a direct descendant of Jeremiah. I live on Australia. I too am trying to backtrack from him being sent out here as a convict. I have not been able to find any other siblings to him other than Bridget. Seems you need to be in Ireland to try and find out details from old country on any more about them. I am trying to track down the line of children from Jeremiah first marriage. I come from his second marriage and subsequent children

Judith, another of the brothers in this family line ended up in Victoria - he was Leo Stanislaus Dwyer and I found his descendant line and living relatives by accident too.
Nice to have another Dwyer family line helping, even if not my connection

I cant thank everyone enough for their help in the last 24 hrs

You have truly been amazing at finding leads.  I will certainly send look up request via Ryerson Index.  Cant believe how much in such a short time with everyones help
Makes me hopeful of finding living descendants sometime
Having the property names that John worked on is great in that it now allows me to track on a map his movements.

Like another challenge girls - his other brother Thomas Clement Dwyer
He was on 1922 & 1934 Electoral Rolls a lady gave me but if you girls have other years he might be on them too. 
1922Corinda Winton QLD Station Hand
1934 Queen St, Crows Nest QLD Mechanic

His wife was Ivy Gladys & have her both years

He died 14/11/1940 & buried Mitchell General Cemetery,

Funny thing is John Augustine died 21/1/1942 but haven't been able to find where buried - mystery it seems.

These brothers seemed fairly close even in dying 2 years apart

Just thought 1925 & 1930 there might be something for Thomas in the Electoral Rolls too

These boys seemed to work in that region since early 1920's

From what you have given me on Emily Heather I have been able to go back and find more on her siblings now.

Just wonderful

THANKS AGAIN

Thanks Leanne - finally got the page re ship open - I was doing a passenger search instead of just from the general search page.  It seems she may have been Salvation Army from what they have noted her under and now from what you said not being married in Brisbane leads me to believe she may have gone to Darling Downs area as that is where G-Uncle was at that stage on farms.
That entry for Emily Rosina Dwyer d1961 could very well be their daughter and worth looking into.
You are being such a great help with this. I am a novice really and just stumble onto things that lead me to positives so you help in direction is greatly appreciated

Sorry Leanne - Forgot to mention in prior email in answer to you

Yes HEATHER was Emily Rosina's Maiden name.  She married John Augustine DWYER on 24/12/1924
in the state of Queensland, Australia registration ID (1925/000268) - perhaps Brisbane

I think they may have had a son called John Augustine Dwyer too by about 1932 in Queensland Australia, but not sure it is a family match but going by the name would nearly have to be

Oh girls, you have been a great help. Yes, this is her.  I know HEATHER is a strange surname to have but yes it is Emily's surname.  The address given as her last address before embarking on the trip fits perfect too as North Shields was the location I had from 1901 UK Census. This is just so wonderful of both of you to find her for me.  Has brought her alive so to speak for me now.
I am trying to open our national archives file to find that entry Leanne you mentioned and I have been able to find the Ship you think was hers but only since 1930's not 1922.  Dont know what I am doing wrong in finding it. 
Anyway, just to have the ship name and dates of sailing are great.
I am slowly piecing her family together now (siblings in UK from census - at least location of residence and ages)
Pity I wasn't having more luck on this end in Australia with my G-Uncle - her hubby - but I am just pleased to have anything at all on this group of the family.
Many thanks for your help confirming her coming here to Australia.  Just brilliant
Kind regards

Australia / Passenger List 1922 - HEATHER
« on: Sunday 17 May 09 13:59 BST (UK)  »
Just wondering if someone can help me too with a 1922 look Up please.  I have finally located the wife of my Great Uncle and she immigrated from London, England in 1922 to Brisbane, Australia. her name was Emily Rosina Heather and comes up as Emily Heather born 1898. If anyone has access to this sort of thing would be interested in name of ship and anything else available.  She appears to have travelled on her own as I couldnt find any other persons by the surname of Heather that year.
I live in NSW and everywhere I try on line to look for Qld entries you seem to hve to actually go to State Archives Office which is impossible for me, so any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Surrey Completed Look up Requests / Re: MARY ANN COLE C1820-1896
« on: Wednesday 28 January 09 22:11 GMT (UK)  »
Thank you Cath - yes you look like you have found the right family and I will now go see if I can find the other people listed in census. You may have given me William Cole's siblings & mother from 1841 entry and more of Rebecca & James Charles siblings.  You are correct that I have found James Charles William Cole sometimes just as Charles William Cole which was very confusing to start with, so I am happy that you have found a match for this family in census records. I hadn't been able to get anywhere with this family till 2 weeks ago, so your help now is wonderful giving me more to hunt for now. Mary Cole burial 1821 in Mill Pond Bridge is very interesting.  I haven't found anything with that location entered anywhere before, so now I know it existed and there was family born & buried there.
A huge thanks to you for all this and I will take up your suggestion of creating a new thread once I get a handle as they say on the info you have given me.

Kind regards

Surrey Completed Look up Requests / Re: MARY ANN COLE C1820-1896
« on: Wednesday 28 January 09 09:46 GMT (UK)  »
Hi, I am new to this site and just seen your entry about a Cole possibly in Rotherhithe at some time.  My G-G-Grandfather James Charles William Cole was listed as born at Mill Pond Bridge, Surrey on my G-Grandfathers birth Cert, but on G-G-Grandfathers (JCWC) marriage Cert he is listed as born Rotherhithe near Deptford, Surrey.  So I am always on the look out for Cole family with any association with the same area. I notice a couple of ladies have tried to help you in your quest. My G-G-Grandfather seems to have been born in 1842 based on age at his sons birth and age at marriage but he may have been actually born or just christened 3 yrs later as i found his christening on 2/5/1845  at St Mary Magdeline, Bermondsey, Surrey, England. His parents were William Haydon Cole & Rebecca Tupper which were found from his marriage  Cert to Ann Hoath.  Because my G-G-Grandfather (JCWC) married here in Australia to an older lady who also came to Australia from UK & married in 1869, I have not been able to track him back any further. In the event that someone sees this posting and finds anything in 1841 census that might shed some light on the families I would greatly appreciate it. My G-G-Grandfather had a sister Rebecca Susan Cole born Dec Q 1839 in Bermondsey,  chr 7/7/1841 St Mary Magdeline, Bermondsey, so she would be with parents in 1841. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated
