Tasmanian Look Ups Please - Mark 2

[Rochdalian]

Hi

I have exhausted all my known on line sources looking for these people so I thought I would ask the oracles.   

I'm working backwards from Mary Warren b1849 in or around Chudleigh.  I have her parents as Richard Warren & Anne Wright.  I am looking for anything about the parents and maybe their parents etc. 

Cheers

Bob

Marry WARREN born 30/11/1849 at Launceston reg 2557/1849 ref  RGD33
fathe Richard WARREN mother Ann Wright

This couple had 14 children
the first being born 3/1/1849 yes  the poor woman had another on 10 months later.  The last being born 1872

I  can type them all up Bob if you want them

Now he was 38 years old when they married in MORVEN 1/2/1848
she was 18 years old  reg no 2154/1848 ref RGD 37


could very well be his death
RICHARD WARREN aged 78  on 11/7/1885 at Deloraine reg 573/1885 ref RGD  35


also ANNE WARREN aged 80 on 25/1/1881 at Deloraine  but  that does not tie in with her age given on  the marriage though

Some of this information on this database is incorrect with some entries but it is a good starting point


http://portal.archives.tas.gov.au/menu.aspx?detail=1&type=P&id=298851

the information for Ann's parents I would check her death entry for confirmation on this.
according to this they married 1842
**some records may show they married in Tasmania**
I have found this has been incorrect in some cases, same with births

Hi Bob,
Have you seen this picture of the headstone of Richard Warren at Chudleigh?

Computer that is , not me!.......  Well, actually me too.   Hope my connection holds up.  Seems a bit slow and strange}

You will see that Ann shares the monument and also a little 6 yr. old boy  Levi Luckman died 1865
The stone will clarify the death date of Ann for you.
1884 aged 54.

Hello  there Sue

Levi Luckamn was one of  their children  or I  should say  two after  the first little one died  then another was given  the same name, as was the fashion in those days, so I  would say you  found  their headstones.

kind thoughts Jenn

Hi All,
Yes Jenn, Levi the 2nd lived to a good age and his headstone is listed, though not photographed at the same site.
He was 85 when he died in 1957, so the MI details say.

Hi Ladies

Thanks for your info and yes I have tried the Tassie Archives site, in fact that is one of the reasons I posted.  I suppose we all understand that the further we go back the less sure we are of the info.  On the Colonial Links site Anne Wright's parents are given as John Wright & Susanna Durant with births in the second decade of the 1800's, in Hobart, and a marriage also in Hobart in 1842.  However I think I know Anne was born c1832 ish.   Could be the wrong Anne I suppose. 

I have just looked at John Wright, Susanna Durant & Richard Warren as convicts.  I've found 11 John Wrights who fit the time frame, no Susanna Durant and no Richard Warren.

Dear Bob etc.,

Richard Warren was born ca. 1807 in Broadwindsor, Dorset, son of William Warren and Mary Luckham. I am descended from Richard's elder sister Mary who married Henry Wakely in 1821 and lived after then in Medstead, HAM.

Richard William arrived in Tasmania on the Africaine in November 1836.

More information is available on descendants and ancestors.

Regards,

Andrew Whittaker.

Hi Andrew

Welcome to RootsChat.

I would certainly welcome any info on Richard, particularly his migration, I will send you a PM with my email address.

I suppose I should explain my interest.  Mary Warren is my daughter-in-law's great great grandmother.

Cheers

Bob
