James SNADDON - NSW

[Siouxsie]

Dear Sue,
If this is the correct James (reply #3), then the William at Tamworth Cemetery may be his brother!
"In the 1841 British Census there are 2 James Snaddon's listed living in Polmont.

James (aged 10) is listed as living with Mary SNADDON (aged 45)
James (aged 11) is living with Mary BENNIE (aged 35) along with George Snaddon (13), William Snaddon (9), Jean Snaddon (7) and Alexander Snaddon (5)."

Cheers
Susie

Hi Susie,


James (aged 11) is living with Mary BENNIE (aged 35) along with George Snaddon (13), William Snaddon (9), Jean Snaddon (7) and Alexander Snaddon (5)."


There are references on the electoral roll for Sneddons with some of those given names at Tamworth.

Probably in the PO directories too.  I wll look

Anyway, allowing for a great many doubtfuls and lots of IF's

This could possibly be the death entry for WILLIAM who may possibly be the brother of James and it shows these parents

Don't know

Whacko......looks like the same family and they all came to Australia! Great find.

Hi Susie,
I would lke that to be true, but after a trawl of the immigration records I cannot find them all arriving in the right time frame.

There are a GEORGE and ALEXANDER [brothers ] together on GOLCONDA in 1858.

But no viable James at all. And no William is  placed well either.

A bit patchy and indefinite

IT is possible that others have Resources to look beyond the State Archives for arrivals

Possibly one of these 2 under different spellings??

Dear Sue,
Let's hope a resources rich person hops on the thread..........with immigration records

Alas, it is my total achilles heel!

Hi
This is probably GEORGE's death with the same parents as WILLIAM

5622/1868  SNEDDON,  GEORGE father  ALEXANDER  mother MARY @ NUNDLE 

Nundle is in the TAMWORTH area.



The age gaps between the brothers  on the ship tallies very closely with the age gaps of  those on Susie's 1841 census findings.

ADDING
For reasons of elimination, the only other 2 SNEDDON deaths with Parents ALexander and Mary are for infant twins in the Merewether district in 1906 according to BDM nsw

Hi,
 So of we go back to reply #3.............who is Mary BENNIE......is she their mother/nanny/married sister/aunty.......the mystery of it all!

Cheers
Susie
