Hi Karen

A "wee" BREAKTHROUGH ... I think ?  ....  I hope !    :)

May have found Violet's youngest daughter (and a link to her). 

Will PM you the details.   Do feel free to share this and the other with Meg (via PM).    ;)

Hi Lu and Karen,

Glad someone had some success.  Nothing in Tasmania for the Robinsons at all.  Did pick this up
in Victoria.

ROBINSON, Giles Escott.
Event
Gazetted
25 Apr 1865
Place:
Raspberry Creek, Victoria
Source:
Government gazette.

Directories.  There were several just before and between 1931 and 1936 but no sign of any of the familes.

Thelma Myles married Thomas Allan Kirkpatrick in 1936 no. 3362 and Myles Bernard married in 1942 no. 8982 which is the last year of the indexes for Victorian marriage.

I looked in the Sth Australian deaths for Myles Murdoch but again nothing.

It looks like the Robson marriage is in NZ because it didn't come up in Victoria.

Victorian deaths at sea go to 1920.  But they are all probably included in the from 1921 death Index

I also looked in Melbourne General Cemetery where Murdoch and Christy are buried but the only Myles in 1928 is Lachlan Campbell McInnes's son Myles McInnes.

I ran out of time and options.  :'(

Rosanne came up with Donald McInnes and Margaret Anderson's daughter Mary born 3.11.1825 being at Young and she said there was another one of their children there as well.  So far I don't know of any connection to this family but they did have their children in Strath parish on Skye like Christy's family. 

Would think Young was a pretty small place so there might be a connection.

Hi Meg  (and Karen)

I know that feeling too, when you "chip" away for hours and seemingly come up with nothing.

But hey  ... I can see all the effort you've put in - you've done a great job  ...   REALLY !     :)   :)

That's interesting about the ROBSON marriage ... I've triple-checked, and it's definitely not on the NZ index.

[Hmm ... getting the feeling that Giles Escott R. might have been a bit of a "colourful" character ? ]

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.

Hi Lu,

Probably was as he seems to have had shares in a gold mine and he came up in the 1894 QLD Police Gazette? as well as the one you found but it is Sidney Clarence Emerald? Robson who married Violet Irene.  Perhaps they married in another Australian State.

Hi Karen and Meg

EXCELLENT work Meg !    :)

Ah yes  ... I see Violet's marriage now  ... on NSW index :

1925 - ROBSON - Sydney CE - Violet I. MacINNIS / McINNIS

So  ... (Blanche) Madeline registered in Albury (and Beechworth is just across the border in VIC.   Yep, I know the territory, I've got some of my Kiwi-Oz family living there).
I guess as her Mum died when she was so young, poor Blanche Madeline was probably not quite sure where she came from ?     Wonder if she made the move to QLD when her father re-married ?   Perhaps that is where she met Miles Murdoch (if he'd gone there with brother Godfrey ? ).

Very interesting info Meg.  I'm sure it will be well received by the newly-found daughter of Violet.     Well done.  :)
