MAYES family descendants in Oz
« on: Monday 03 October 11 09:24 BST (UK) »
Hi 

I am the researcher behind the requests from Magheragall - he was helping me and I don't want to give him thinds to do that I should do myself - so thanks to those who responded - cou;d you kindly now respond to me - please .

Last request was for any records on William Mayes b sept 1862 d 1942 chatswood - I know his eldest daughter Jane (or variation) was born in Sydney in 1892 - mother Elizabeth who he probably had not wed  as already married back in Ireland (first wife mentally unstable)

However two of his daughters returned to Australia and wed

Elizabeth b  married Russell Walters - I met her in Centennial year in a retirement home 
Kathleen b Married  Roland Hill 

Can anyone help with more detail on these rellys  ?

Hi grandpezza :)

Welcome to rootschat  :)

From previous thread....to save any duplicate searching.

William Mayes born Sept 1862 but may be recorded five years either side – he visited Australia with Elizabeth his wife around 1892 when their daughter Jane was born in Sydney

No birth registered in NSW for a Jane with parents Wm and Elizabeth.

Not having any luck with passenger information.

I can't locate Wm with wife Elizabeth and son Wm G. born c1894 on the 1910 USA census.

Perhaps you can identify her death notice on this index

Where and when in Australia did you visit Elizabeth WALTERS?

Is is possible Elizabeth married in another country?

Purely by chance, happened to notice this birth:
Kathleen M MAZE
Father:  William A A MAZE
birth: 1905 Glebe, New South Wales

Could this be birth of Kathleen M who married Roland F Hill in 1935?

And a random thought Re:  Elizabeth Mayes
Could Elizabeth Mayes have been married in another state or, possibly been married prior to marriage to Russell Walters?
