Rose Ann BRIGGS and George GULLIDGE

[bertoli22]

I'm looking for descendants of Rose Ann Briggs and George Gullidge who married in Adelaide in 1852. Rose Ann is the sister of John and George  Briggs.  There were two other siblings possibly Catherine and James though names not confirmed.


Selina Ann Gullidge dau of Rose Ann and George was born in Adelaide in 1854.

thanks, bertoli

Marriage

GULLIDGE George  30 years  Widower  Father unrecorded.
BRIGGS Rose Anne  15 years  Single  Father unrecorded
12 Jul 1852
At St Mark Penwortham   Ade 10/249

Birth
GULLIDGE Selina Ann
1 Apr 1854
Father George GULLIDGE   Mother: Rose Ann [Not recorded]
Place not recorded   Ade 4/304

I can't see any further records for any of the above in South Australia ie marriage for Selina or deaths for George or Rose Ann.

Do you want a search for Rose's siblings ie possible marriages but  may be difficult as Rosa's father's name does not appear on her marriage reg in 1852.

There is a John BRIGGS, wife and five children listed arriving in 1848.  Unfortunately no names for children.

Will have a look in the Biographical Index of SA for you.

There is a marriage for James Briggs

James Briggs aged 35 father John Briggs married Mary McCANN aged 34 father Arthur McCann at Mr. Etheridges Eating house Port Lincoln on 4/3/1864
book 57 page 202


Taking a punt  because there are marriages  for John and George which show the fathers name as John

Hi Thanks for your speedy reply and info.
The john Briggs, wife and five children are mine.  i know that John, George and Rose Ann were definitely 3 of that 5. I had thought that a Catherine Margaret Briggs who married William SINCLAIR  on 1848-05-14 in SA might have been mine but the date is after the arrival of the Poictiers.
The family were in Winwick in 1841 but were born in Northamptonshire/Leicestershire/Huntingdonshire.

They settled in Mintaro SA John senior died in adelaide in 1888, John jnr died in adelaide in 1900.  George settled in NSW and died 1914.

I'm having trouble finding the other siblings and had hoped that Rose Ann's descendants might catch up.
I had a pm from a descendant of Rose Ann several years ago but they never got back to me.

There are eight births to Selina and Thomas GALLOWAY on

Have you traced all of them?

Hi Cando and Jen

i'm sort of claiming that James as mine but don't have any proof yet
That Menindie Gullidge is the right one. That Selina went on to marry Thomas Galloway.

I've been trying to work out how i can sort out what the names of the other two siblings of John ,George and Rose Ann.

There were a number of John Briggs around in SA. The Mintaro family are definitely mine.  John senior was married at least two times.  He came here with his second wife Ann Butler.  After her death he may have married a "Slyvia" as there is mention of here in a book about the Catholic church in Mintaro. Not much mention of John and none of Ann as they were not Catholic.  Theirchildren married Catholics

There are some GALLOWAY burial records in the Broken Hill cemetery.  A George Gullidge GALLOWAY and Thomas Gullidge GALLOWAY....sons of Selina?

Very few GULLIDGE listings on whitepages.  May be worth sending a letter or two.

I have had a quick look on the 1841 census but am unable to locate the family....not unusual for me    Do you have the census reference for them?  Just wondering how many chn are named.
