Hi Jenn,
I only have England, they were my great grandparents and on my grandfathers marriage certificate it has Charles Henry Turner as his father. All other references to him are Henry. I don't have his death as yet but it was before 1909.

Yes Jenn,
Harriet died in Tenterfield and was buried in Stanthorpe QLD which isn't far from Tenterfield. Henry is not there.

I am curious now why Stanthorpe  and not Tenterfield ?

Hello wisby,

I think you really need to tell us a lot more about what you know for certain, what certificates you have, and on what you have based the information you have provided e.g.
- why do you say that Henry & Harriet arrived in Vic 1869-1871?
- on which certificates did it say that they were married in Vic or, alternatively, in England?
- where does the information that Henry was b ca 1834 and Harriet ca 1843, both in England come from?
- where does the information that Henry had died by 1909 come from?
- why do you query the birth of Ellen in 1871 in Yea?  Do you have that certificate?  What are the details on it?

Sorry to ask so many questions but I think it's necessary 

Looking at the online NSW BDM it seems that Henry & Harriett started having children in Tenterfield in 1877 and stopped by 1883 - so those are useful cut-off dates.
Births, TURNER, parents Henry & Harriet(t) Ann(e), Tenterfield.
*Emily M 1877
*Edwin John 1878
*Marian 1879
*Frederick William 1881
*William Henry 1883
Do you have all or any of those certificates?  If so, how do the parental details compare with those of Ellen, b 1871 Yea?

It seems that Marian may have had several children?
TURNER, no father listed, mother as Marian/Marion, Tenterfield
#Cecil J, born and died 1901
#Florence M b 1903
#Elsie A b 1906
#Frederick b & d 1909

And is the following Louisa a daughter of Henry & Harriet?
TURNER, no father listed, mother as Louisa, Tenterfield
#Henry T b 1893
And is this her marriage?
#TURNER Louisa m Robert AINSWORTH, 1893, Tenterfield
And their AINSWORTH children in Tenterfield?
#Harriet 1894
#Robert 1898
#louisa 1900

Etc, etc, etc ...

If Louisa TURNER is a daughter of Henry & Harriet, it would seem that her marriage certificate would be extremely useful as it should give her age and her place of birth.

Just a couple more questions.
- does Harriet's grave in the Stanthorpe Cemetery have a headstone inscription, and is anyone else buried in it?
- are there any relevant graves for family members in the Tenterfield Cemetery?

Regards,

JAP
