miles mcinnes on arrivals from australia

[esprit9]

Hi Lu and Karen,

I found Blanche Madeline registered in Albury NSW (a long way from Tasmania) in 1878 so she was 22 when she married in NZ in 1900.  She is registered as Madeline.

It seems the family was moving between Beechworth in Victoria and somewhere near Albury as this is the registration district.

According to other research which I have checked, where I can, against the Victorian BDMs

Robert McCAMEY b.c 20 Feb 1815 m Mary Jane JACKSON in Tyrone.
Robert was a landholder at Killyneery, Parish of Carnteel, Tyrone
in Griffiths Evaluation. (Between Ballygawley and Aughnacloy)

They had Madeline McCAMEY b.c1845 d.2 April 1882 Sandridge, Victoria, Australia
(Migrated to Victoria, Australia 1864)
m 8 Oct 1868 (Vic.) Giles Escott ROBINSON

It is a bit hard to work out so I hope it makes sense

Robert Henry Giles born Beechworth 1869
Eliza Mary Jane 1871 Beechworth
Giles Escott died Beechworth aged 1 year in 1874 listed as born NSW

NSW (all registered at Albury)

Giles Escott McC born 1873 (has to be the one who died at Beechworth)
Giles R born 1874
Giles E born 1876
Madeline born 1878

Deaths NSW

John 1877
Robert H G 1874

So Madeline the mother died when daughter Madeline was 4.

Giles was born in Reading according to the marriage index married his brother Henry Giles Robinson's widow Julia Ellen Bushell (var spellings) in 1885 in QLD.  She had married Henry in 1863 in Victoria (index says Bathgate). 

They had a few children at Beechworth. Henry Edward seems to be their last in 1872

Hope this helps to fill in some gaps.

Meg.

Evening all:
This is my first involvement with RootsChat and am not even sure this is the accepted means of contact with other participants who seem to have interests in a family group I am researching.

My particular interests are with Bathgate / Bushell / Robinson families in the Beechworth, Victoria (Australia) area, around 1855 onwards.

It seems Meg7 / karenoz / Lucy2 may have similar interests/connections  (via the 'McCamey' family ?) ?

Would appreciate contact / information exchange / etc.

Many thanks

Hi Esprit9,

Welcome to RootsChat and the New Zealand Board,

Yes, this is definitely the accepted means of contacting other family researchers.

While waiting for them to reply to your post you might want to reply to mine. Once you're made three posts you will have access to the Personal Message (PM) facility and will be able to send messages direct to other RootsChatters. To send a PM to another RootsChatter look for the scroll icon below their name on one of their posts. Click on it and the PM text box will open.

Even just a post with a smiley will be enough to activate your PM facility.

Hello  Meg7 : (my first attempt at sending a message - by way of posting a reply, please bear with me)

If this is the way to comment on your post, quoted above, I hope you may be able to assist in matters relating to "Giles Escott ROBINSON".

As it is some time since you , and your correspondents - Lucy2 and karenoz, were interested in this guy I hope you may have time to reconsider details relating to him.

My interest is as a descendant of the individuals you referred to as 'Julia Ellen Bushell' and 'Henry Giles Robinson'.

Hope you may have time to respond.

Many thanks & best wishes for a successful 2012

Hello Spades

My apologies for not acknowledging your December 2011 response to my first attempt at entering your marvellous system, under the above subject.

My second attempt (January 2012, to Meg7's attention) appears to be the most recent post under the above subject and I am now unsure as to whether I should have tried to let Meg7 know of my interest in this subject by way of PM instead - as her earlier contributions date back over two years ago and she may not be currently concerned with the above subject.

Best wishes for the New Year

You never know if you don't ask!

By all means send a PM if you want to.

Hi esprit9

Just to explain ... I have no personal interest in any of the families mentioned in this thread.   
[My "efforts" here are those of a volunteer who has access to, and some knowledge of, New Zealand records. ]

Lucy2: Hello and many thanks for your 16/2/2012 response in the above regard.

Sorry to have troubled you (again) on this one as I have just responded to Karenoz's reply to my original query (with a copy to you, and Meg7) before seeing your message under reply.
Perhaps I could take advantage of your 'NZ access and knowledge' in future research on my wife's family ?
My thanks in advance and best wishes for continuing success in research.
Best regards
