Unfortunately 1841 gives little information on Charles Blizard
He is living in Old Newton with a James and Elizabeth Cour? (very hard to read the name) - James and Charles are both Blacksmiths

Hi Trish     :)

Very many thanks for your help with census info which has now confirmed that this BLIZZARD family had NO connection to those at Gloucester.     Rather an unusual surname and the fact this Charles was living in the same area as Richings, meant I HAD to check him out.   Phew !   Am quite relieved - one less "bod" to have to follow up on !

Yep, this thread has more twists and turns than your average snake !   

Thanks again

Regards
Lu

Hi Jenn     :)

Very many thanks - wow ..... that was great information you found!

Obvious now that theses BLIZZARDS are NOT connected to those in Gloucester ... but it made sense to check them out!

Thanks for your help

Kind regards

Hi everyone

I have been the State Archives today-now more confused than ever.
I will start with the trail of Ebenzer Bransgrove and Frederick Poole.
The upshot is:
They were found guilty on 12 June 1855 and waiting sentence in Darlinghurst Gaol.(for Frauduently received and delivery of goods part of an insolvent estate)

HOWEVER!
On 21 July 1855  before the full court the court ruled that the verdict must be quashed.Prisoners ordered to be discharged accordingly.

So they got off

Need more time to get my head around the whole orphanage saga-it appears that it was William who was dead not Jane!!

Will try and post this later once I check a few more facts

Hi

Thought I would start off with the simple part (or so I thought-silly me!)

Jane Elizabeth Wilkinson (nee Heasman)
died 19th November 1919 at Guildford ,Sydney NSW
In her very simple will-I Jane Elizabeth Wilkinson of 98 Fourcart Street,Rozelle - she leaves  everything to her grandson Cecil Payne of 98 Fourcart Street, Rozelle .
Her estate was valued at £262.15s which was the weatherboard cottage of 4 rooms and kitchen in Fourcart Street.
She is described as a widow,Cecil states his occupation as Motor Mechanic.

So who is Cecil?
In 1891 one Florence Wilkinson married Henry Payne in Sydney.

They had the following children:

Alice I born 1893  died 1893
Charles H born 1902 died 1902 as Horace C
Esther L born 1906 died 1906 as Esther H
But no Cecil
However in 1891 a Florence Wilkinson ( no father listed) had a son Frances C

On the 1903 Electoral Roll at :

38 Regent Street Chippendale
Wilkinson Jane
Payne Florence
Payne Frank -occup Linesman

Who is Frank?is he Frances Cecil?if he was born 1891 he would be old enough to be on the electoral roll.The Cecil in 1919 was a motor mechanic so was no child.

Found Florence Payne dying in 1909 father Charles, mother Jane

Dear Annie,

Great finds!

I'm still with you (I think!).

Why oh why were BRANSGROVE & POOLE exonerated ...

So the heir to Jane Elizabeth (HEASMAN) WILKINSON's 'widow's mite' is Cecil PAYNE; he being a grandson of Jane Elizabeth (HEASMAN) WILKINSON.  He's perhaps Frances C WILKINSON b 1891 son of Florence WILKINSON, and perhaps a pre-nuptial child with Henry PAYNE (the marriage of Henry PAYNE & Florence WILKINSON being in 1891)?

But why Frances - normally a female forename.

And do we have the birth of a Florence WILKINSON, daughter of Charles & Jane Elizabeth?  And do we assume that she's the same as Florence PAYNE d 1909, parents Charles & Jane.

One wonders why Jane's other grandchildren got nothing.

It would be nice to to find the death (where?) of Jane Elizabeth's husband Charles WILKINSON (Charles & Jane married in 1856).

Sorry if I'm getting confused with this saga ...

JAP
PS: When looking up these births I came across a Florence with pa Caractacus PAYNE.  Wow!!

One could add on a  lighter  note  that  the  thread  is starting to resemble  the court of King Caractacus!!
