Are You Sitting Comfortably Part 2

[JAP]

Hi ShaunJ,

Did you notice that Hugh jnr (died in 1980's) had been in Australia for years?  Giving a migration date of ca 1950's.  And his mother Mary (died 1960's) had been in Australia 10 years - giving a migration date of ca 1950's

It seems possible, then, that the 1933 trip (assuming it was this Mary) might have been a recuperative sea voyage following the 1932 death of Hugh THORNTON/Euclid Hope BUTTERWORTH.  And that Mary, son Hugh, his wife Bessie, and their children might have migrated together in 1950's

JAP
PS: I wonder where PRF submitter Gerald E BARNARD fits in to the picture (incidentally, the telephone directory at:
http://www.whitepages.com.au/wp/initResSearch.do
lists only an H BARNARD at the address given for the submitter).
PPS (added later): The PRF says that Bessie, wife of Hugh Spence Abbey THORNTON, died 1990's Queensland

[ShaunJ]

That all seems very likely JAP.

Gosh isn't there a lot of data in that PRF

As it's public domain .... can we post or do we need a ruling ??

Edit ... I asked for a ruling .... so let's wait ... because it would be great to have other information to work with !

Hi Reiver - yes I think that must be another son of Albert and Ann.

Euclid Curry Butterworth went into the Church and was the incumbent at St Mary's Lincoln from 1940 to 1945   1944.

There is however a death for Euclid Curry Butterworth as follows:-

194o's age 39   Lincoln

Sorry 

So that's why he's not in the phonebooks after 1945!

There's a mention of him in this reminiscence of the 1930's. It seems he had a rich bass voice. http://archive.worcesternews.co.uk/2006/12/26/442045.html

Hi you group of incredibles,
I woke up at 3 am.....and have finally got around to reading this posting...2 hours later...I am here...I live 1 hour from Redcliff Qld.....would anyone like me to ring Mr Barnard...and if so...what would you like me to say....? as I have only read this entire thread not any previous ones...
Tell  me what I should do..?

By the way....
If you put this number in only  1909788-1028102032631 into the Pedigree resource file....you get tons of names that you are researching....all from Mr Barnard....then you can put in the surnames .....only to see what else he has...that you are looking for...
regards
Jo

Bear with us Jo  - Annie's gone to a meeting and is offline at the moment. But I guess it's still a bit early in the morning to be phoning anyone in Queensland about family history!

If you want a very short summary of what this is about take a look at the welcome page on the website:

You'll need the password. I'll send it by PM (if there's anyone else who would like it just send me a PM). I haven't yet updated it for today's revelations.
