Hi Carol - I am afraid I can't help with your Australian connection. I know there are Motts in Queensland, and Western Australia - i am related to the/a Queensland arm which all stem from Harry Mott. It really is frustrating isn't it?

Thank you for your reply TRADELIN. Apparently I cannot reply direct to you yet as i am a newbie! I appreciate you going to the trouble of going through all your data. I am afraid Harry is a mystery! I was aware the Sugdens came from Yokshire - I did find a Mary Ann Louisa Sugden born in Bury St Edmunds and thought that was a possibilty but of course can find nothing more about her either. The information about parents is on both his marriage certificates and his death certificate - it is odd. Anyway thanks again for replying and maybe one day we will get to the bottom of it!

Hello I am new at this I suspect I will have done this wrong but here goes anyway!

I am trying to trace information about my gg grandfather Henry (Harry) Mott. He was born in Kings Lynn (or Lynn) Norfolk on 31/10/1853 (we think). His father was also Henry (Harry) Mott and mother Mary Sugden. Harry snr was a Master Mariner according to Harry Jnrs death certificate (10/3/1932).

Harry Jnr came to Australia but we are not able to find out when - it was sometime before 1876 when he married Anna Maria Stanley (d 1881) in Warwick, Queensland. Harry was a Town Clerk in the Clifton shire from 1883 to 1918.

Harry and Anna Maria had 3 children
Gilbert Henry Mott (b 1877) my g grandfather
Sydney Charles (b 1879)
Annie (b 1881, d 1883)

I cannot find any record of Harry and his family in England in census or BDM so any information anyone may have would be a great help! Thx  :)
