miles mcinnes on arrivals from australia

[karenoz]

hi meg7, this sounds real hopeful, not sure how its fits but i cling to any straw.

john mcinnes married maria thesea quinn at young nsw in 1866 on there mariage c they havnt named there parents , just they where both catholic

4 of there children godfrey bernard,andrew john,ellen christina ,emily n who died at 1yr. where born at young nsw.
2 born at balranald nsw,myles murdoch,ernest nerney.

all i know is that john was a postmaster or a telegraph master in 1872 in young.

in 1877 when the youngest was born the 3 eldest children where put into randwick asylum not sure how long in there for.
i know romsey meant something as ellen christina named her daughter romsey.
and on her marriage c she has put down her father john mcinnes is dead her marriage was 1897, so wander if he died in 1877 this is why maria put her children into asylum?

ellen christina must of kept intouch with her family as she had myles murdoch down on her marriage as witness.
questions=where did john mcinnes died?
                  did johns wife maria remarry and maybe this is why the kids where sent away?
                   where did myles murdoch end up?
                   where did ernest nerney  end up?

i have godfrey bernard mcinnes b 1868-1950 in queensland married to a lillian maud thompson in 1899-1949
      children dorothy lillian b 1901-1957 married to john fredericks in 1929.
                  godfrey bernard b 1905-1928
                  andrew john b 1908-1969

Hi Karen

*   Have you got a birth certificate for a child of John (and Maria) McINNES, which might give you an approximate birth year for John ?

hi lu,
no just their marriage c, it only saying that they where married in the catholic church in young 11.2.1866,
 it also says he was a telegraph officer as occupation.
would the catholic church in young, hold more enfo on them.

and how would go about finding them to get it if any.

thanks karen

Hi Karen,

Remembered that Lee and I when he was living in Wales (now in WA) followed a line we thought might be our family.  

It turns out it is yours (may be ours).  Myles Bernard died at Heidleburg (Melbourne) aged 64 years in 1983.  

I am sure I have a copy of a certificate somewhere but I rang his wife up and she knew very little about his family.  I think she said he came from Sydney.  I will have the notes somewhere.

Any way his parents are listed in the Victorian death index and Myles Murdoch and Blanche (no maiden name listed).

Hi Karen

Hmmm ... not really sure about the Catholic church (in Young) having any additional info.   

Seems that there is Family History group in Young (or one servicing the neighbouring area).   I'll add the link - just need to re-find it.

ADDED:   Link to Young (NSW) Family History group (they don't seem to have a website but there is an address you can write to).

Hi Lu and Karen,

Not sure I am really getting the hung of this. 

Any way I found Maria.  She died in 1899 (13318) at Grandville.  Parents Bernard and Ellen.  Bernard seems to have died in 1900 no parents listed.  There seems to only have one child listed in 1850 Bernard but they had a Michael as well as he had a Bernard who died.

Maria's mother Ellen Quinn died in 1871 (7007) at Young parents Michale and Maria. I can't find a marriage so I don't know here maiden name.

Given Myles brother of Christy McInnes mother of the John, Lee and I are looking for, had another family after his wife died and they had a Godfrey who died in Sth Australia in 1912 I would think it is the right family as it is a pretty unusual name.

There is a John McInnes who was 89 in 1928 who died at Narrandera no parents listed but there are others with no parents and no ages so it really could be any of them and he could have died in another State.
