I see three children baptised St James Westminster (London) listed on the IGI extracted records. Seem to be a few Henderson families baptising children in St James around this time

William George Francis 18 Nov 1832 (b 20 Oct)
Regina Catherine 8 Nov 1835 (b 3 Oct)
Arthur Louis 30 Apr 1837 (b 20 Apr)

These notes provided seem to be very accurate, as it was mentioned earlier that George and Regina married in London 1831/32, I have just looked at the death cert for Regina dated 19 Nov 1892 District of Bendigo, the cert does have the names of the 3 children above;

George William Francis;
Regina Catherine;
Arther Louis;
plus others born in Australia, written as in South Aust.
So it would appear that our George is from Ireland, so I will place a posting over there.

Don't know if anyone can help you with this, but the website has had a few hiccups the last couple of days.  May be someone was trying to help someone via chat with regards to a link on the boards.

I have to say though, I have come across a ghostie or two on the internet!!

Hi Lil Fox,
I don't understand computers and the jargon that people talk of when the say "Go to this link or click on that button and it does that"
I'm lost with the simple things, hubby did it all, I'm lost at checking the security button for "start",
how much luck have you had with FREER, how far back did you get?

Hi everyone: I'm just throwing these names in here because they are mentioned in the conversations. I have Logans ( William Logan - a little farther back- he was born 1840, married Mary Anne Edgar from Ireland in 1885. children were Marion, James,  Lizzie, Thomas, John, all born between 1887-1901. On 1901 census lived at 4 Forth Street, St. Rollox, Glasgow.

I also have Hendersons. First one is John married to Margaret Smith, died prior to 1841 . I hail through his son, John.  Family said on 1841 census that they came from Fife, but were living in Bo'ness at the time. Hendersons remained in Bo'ness until my great grandmother ( Mary Henderson who married John Petrie) who ended  up in Glasgow.

Any connections there??   Donna

Hi Donna, at the moment it would apear to be no connection (at the moment)
it seems our Henderson came from Wexford Ireland and married in London, had 3 children there then travelled to Australia, while in Wexford and london he was a piano tuner laborer, in Adelaide he became a professor of music.

With Logan we are still trying to work out, William may have been a family name, don't know, but it was also a common name during those times. Not sure how far spread or how big the name Logan was.
But please, lets try to keep this thread as LOGAN and keep the others where they are listed, not you fault, mine for letting it continue.

Hi All

You need to be careful not to make this incredibly complicated - best to deal with one family name at a time, or it will get unreadable!

Flogged: you do need to get the certificates really - LOGAN is quite a popular name in the area - even I have some!

By all means discuss the other surnames you have in common but best to start new threads if you are seeking information and following up in detail.

Good luck with your various searches!

Kind regards, Arranroots  ;)

Thankyou, I did not think it would have gone on as much, I should have directed back to where they should have been.
So far as certs for Logan go, I was assisting my hubby's half sister born as LOGAN, I have advised her to get what ever she can and then I will continue.

Bantows mentioned here are my Great Great Aunt and Great Great Great Grandfather.  My Pop is currently doing some research and any information on these would be greatly appreciated.  Found the Application for Naturalization on the naa.gov.au website which has provided heaps more info than he had.

Thanks
