Thank you Bob 22, for your prompt response. Your date corresponds with the date I have for Edwin and Amelia. The addition of the church is appreciated. I have all the children for them. I am glad to have William and Mary's wedding date confirmed also.

How many sibling does William have total? Did William tow the line after his early brush with the legal system? Thanks again for the assistance !

Hi Genmom711,
I have no record of siblings for William Playle. He got his ticket of leave 12th Dec 1842 after serving 4 years at Moreton Bay. I have no record of him until he married Mary Ross 14 years later. Perhaps someone has more information??

I've found the missing infant William. He died 20th July 1872 at two days old. I have his death certificate and Mary puts herself as the mother and William as the father, three years after he died! I have no idea who the father was or if the child was Mary's for that matter as she was almost fifty by then. Another mystery someone may have an answer for.
Regards,
Bob22

There are several mysteries that have evolved since I started look into Amelia Anne. I found her name in a tree posted on a personal site.
Besides the  confusing details already detailed, there are more.

The gentleman who has the tree posted had a death certificate for Amelia but the parents name are inaccurate and what looks like to me a melding of family details, surnames etc.

There is a story posted on Ancestry  for Susannah Shepard/ Doherty/ Atkins (by different folks , I presume) that further confuses the Doherty~Atkins story; when it comes to dates, details and parentage.

I don't want to mention the tree without the owners permission but it seems there may be a bit more to unravel. Earlier today I asked for permission to quote his tree for my source and received it but posting details  in a  forum may not be what gentleman is expecting. Looking at it  well rested might make things clearer.

Thank you for the additional feedback!

Hi Chatso58,
The Photo of William does sound like in the Warialda book. I can only find one full length of Mary in the book.
If they are taken from actual photos and not just a scan from the book I would love them.
Regards,
Bob22
