Australia / Re: Death - Sarah SHEARMAN (Née SCALES)
« on: Thursday 17 September 09 04:48 BST (UK)  »
I Have read this thread with much interest. I came across it when searching for info about fullerton cove farming history.
I realise that the shearman side of your research is not you primary task, but this info may be of help.
Mary Ann Shearman Daughter of George and Sarah married William Sansom.
The Sansom family in the Raymond Terrace, Stockton and Fullerton cove area descend from William's father George Sansom and wife Mary West. George and Mary along with Mary's brothers Anthony (with family) and James (Single) all came out to Oz on The Templar in 1844.
There are numerous Wests, Sansoms, and Shearmans burried in Stockton Cemetery ceck out link and view the gravestones.

I know all this because my wife is descended from the West Family. And I work less than 5 minutes from Stockton Cemetery.
