[buckyb]

Hi All

I am trying to find the children of George Henry Perry and Mary Perry (nee Heffernan),they were married in Launceston on 16 Jan 1843.

If anyone has access to Tas bdm any information would be most appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks Leanne

I did not look late enough, the two deaths I found were between 1843 and 1860. One had the wrong parents and the other Ann had no parent details.

The two you found look right I will try and find where they were born.

The daughter you found in Tasmania was Flora Perry. I had earlier tried to find details of her death to no avail.
However on a previous post I found a Flora Heffernan who died in Armidale NSW, her mothers maiden name was Heffernan, her maiden name was Perry and her married name was Tancho, so  I am trying to find a link to Armidale.

She apparently "shot through" from her husband in Quirindi who didn't know where she went. As they were married in Armidale I thought if she died there there may be some family connection.

Once again many thanks for your interest and help.

Regards

Hi Rod,

It is not unusual to find no record of baptism or birth for children during this period, and often the only way that you will find details of all children to a couple is from the parents' death cert or the birth cert of the youngest child.  I would never have known the children of my gggrandparents had they not moved from Tas to Victoria and died there.

The possible son, Charles Henry PERRY,  was aged 46 when he died in Queensland in 1895, so born around 1846.

The 1860 birth cert ( or the 1856 if you are not confident that the 1860 birth is your couple) should give parents' marriage details to establish their identity and should also list all previous issue.

It can be downloaded at http://www.rootschat.com/links/0cqf/  (buy uncertified images online)

Perhaps Leanne can give you the reg numbers as I have only checked the indexes available on Ancestry and do not trust the accuracy of their reg numbers.
