OK'
I see what Genni is pointing out now I think, about why not named Holmes..

Death registrations are not the same as BURIAL registrations.  Obviously taken from quite different sources.  So, although the burial says SHEERLOCK, the death says HOLMES.
This fact/discrepancy shows again in the wierd spelling of JENN'S George [death] and the more accurate in the burial entry.
Slowly getting it together it seems!

Wow! Have wondered before where the STEELE's fit in as I had found Andrew William Steele SHEERLOCK before in the National Archives, mother - Mary, and I assume later his wife - Ellen, as next of kins.

Not sure about the last post with the STEELE/SHEERLOCK cross overs.. but another challenge!! Whyte Yarcowie Cemetery is 'around' the area of my original Mary Ann HARVEY (nee SHEERLOCK) in Yacka SA, so it stands to reason or possibility that they are all connected.. now to prove the links.

I went to Murray Bridge Cemetery on the w/end to see the SHEERLOCK graves there and it seems to fit that this William SHEERLOCK was my Mary Ann's brother, with his wife Mary (nee STEELE) beside him. Not much info was on the headstone, just the years:

SHEERLOCK
In Loving Memory of our parents
Mary 1856-1920 William 1845-1933
At rest


Will keep digging! Especially the HYDE possibility in Victoria. Thanks to everyone!
Kind Regards, Jo

Hi All

Just a few more additional entries for you.

William HOLMES & Catherine SHEERLOCK had a son Joseph born 15th July 1853 Ref: Ade Book 4 Page 190

Catherine SHARLOCK died 3rd December 1876 Hd of Whyte near Mount Remarkable aged 25 Relative: Brother George SHEERLOCK Ref: Fro V 71 315

Mary STEELE married George SHEERLOCK 30th August 1877 She was the daughter of Andrew STEELE and the same Mary STEELE who married William SHEERLOCK 26th November 1884.

The John Steele SHEERLOCK born 20/2/1878 (Jenn gave you) was the Son of George & Mary.

The George Sherlock STEELE buried at Yarcowie is John STEELE'S son (John is Mary SHEERLOCK nee STEELE's  brother)

There is a death entry in Victoria for John HYDE aged 2 in 1844 Father: William HYDE Mother not recorded.  St James Melbourne Reg: 3965

Regards


Genni

Well I had to read that a couple of times over to get it straight!! Thanks so much for all your help!

I'm sure they whacked in the Sherlock just to mess with our heads.. borrowed from an in law name indeed! Highest form of compliment I'm sure though.

This is my first real enquiry post and I'm just so impressed with everyone's help. What a fantastic site!

Cheers, Jo

Hello  there
 I have adjusted  my  post  to correct  my mistake  of  the  children  to George  and William  married  to Mary Steele

I had  written down  correctly  when I checked  by  transcribed it all as to  one marriage.

It is intersting  to note  that when Mary Sheerlock  nee Steele  married  the brother  she  used  her maiden  name  and put  down single  on  the  marriage details!!!!

on three on  the children's births details  mothers name is Mary (fmly) Sheerlock (nee) Steele

Maybe   any RCer with  a  lot more  knowledge  than  myself will be able  to say  why  this  is
