William J DAVIS

[Sandra Skinner]

Hi Neil,
Small world. Wiiliam 's daughter lived in Bexley for most of her married life. We live in the Suth. Shire. I have established that Louis O'Neill, Norm's Grandfather may have been the connection. In 1875 a Louis O'Neil was born to a Kate. Surname of child was O'Neill father's forename unknown.
As Louis is a common name in Norrn O'Neill's family I am hoping that I have it right.
As Louis is not a very common name I have found the death of a Louis O'Neill in Camden in 1950 and have sent f ???or a transcript of his D Cert. Also a Mary O'Neill died in Carcoar in 1918  mother Rose. William was married in Orange.Have sent for this as well. When I receive these I will send for Davis and McDermott transcripts if appropriate.  Once again many thanks.
Sandra

Perhaps this is a connection:

TROVE has many mentions of Louis O'Neill over the years - one of them looks interesting, given the Yass connection - he was committed at Yass Court for forgery, Tues 20 March 1877.

Hi Judith,
Have used Trove before but not sure why I can't get any results for Louis O'Neill.
What type of search did you do?

Hi Grizz30, is your post in direct connection to this thread? It seems to be headed off in another direction. Should it be in connection to William Davis, I apologise. If you intended to start a new Thread and would like others to see your questions then you need to go back to the main board Australia and on the right hand side is a tab for new thread. Click that put in your main heading with the name you are seeking in Capitals and pose your question in the body of the text.

Many moons ago I posted a question about William j Davis. In your reply you mentioned you had a lot of information about Rose O'Neill. On her mother's DC it is claimed that Rose was the daughter of an unknown "Davis" Her mother then had other children to a Daniel O'Neill. Thus the name Rose O'Neill. Can you provide me with any information about this?? Would be extremely grateful.

[Sandra Skinner]

Many moons ago you posted the previous information about this family and you said you had heaps of info as Rose O'Neill was your great grandmother. Mary Kate McDermott was my husnand's great great grandmother. His great grandfather was William J Davis born to Mary before she married Daniel O'Neill. Would welcome any information you can share about this family..thanks in advance
