PAYNE Arrival in Sth Australia
« on: Wednesday 28 June 06 02:56 BST (UK) »
Looking for the arrival of a family of Paynes to Sth Australia between 1865 and 1871.  Wife's name is Frances (nee Pettman), probably from Kent.  Can anyone help me out here.

Regards

Thanks Tropicalj - that was fast.  I suspect the date on Frances death certificate was about correct, I have a Frances Pettman born in 1845 in Whitstable Kent.  My sources in the UK can only find one marriage (registered in Blean) for a Frances Pettman on 6 Oct 1865, but alas no spouse.

I found this birth plus the others you mentioned which started me wondering, Pettman was often misspelt or transcribed as PITTMAN:
Surname: PAYNE
Given Names: Rosa Florence
Date: 1871-01-25
Sex: F
Father: William PAYNE
Mother: Frances PITTMAN
Birth Place/Residence: Fulham
District Code: Ade
Symbol:
Book: 91
Page: 122
Cross Reference:

I'm off to NSW State Library next week so hope to find out more then.  But if you do come across something that would be wonderful.

Many thanks for your help

Jenn,
With the 'Informant' details on a deaths on the cd's, the relative data does not always mean that it was that particular person who was the informant. To see the true factual data you must check the original certificate.

This is from the cd help section.

Quote
The relative field is a combination of the relative’s given names, surname and relationship to the deceased (in brackets). Details came from two sources on the registrations. The Rank or Profession column, where the information was written by the registrar, or the informant column, usually in the informant’s handwriting.


With many of the SA certificates I have looked at many females have the husband's details eg: Wife of Joe Bloggs, Carpenter in the Rank and Profession part and the Funeral directors in the Informant part

What do you mean? H=Husband BUT you cannot say from the cd's that the relative Joe Bloggs (H) was the informant. That information you have to get off the certificate itself

Also on the cd's there is NOT the word Informant on the data you view so where you got that he was the informant has me baffled.
Sorry I am a stickler for 100% facts and no assumptions

Hello there Viv

sorry to have mislead You  i should not have said informant i should have said RELATIVE


I did not set out to misled you with the misuse of the word informant  instead of relative  i have modified the orginal post


I feel as if i have been singled out for rebuke

so i am apologising to you viv  I am only doing my best and it is obviously not good enough  surely this is a friendly forum and should remain that way
