Re Burton Tandy...

NSW Govt Gazette page 1447 has a notice issued by the NSW Col Treasury, at Sydney 15 Dec 1847 re several pieces of land at Ipswich that were forfeited by Burton Tandy.  They had been advertised previously in the Gaz of 6 Aug 1847, and sole by auction at Brisbane, Moreton Bay on 15 Sept, 1847.
According to that notice, two lots with deposits of £1 12s and £2 10s were each of 32 perches and another of 32 perches where the deposit/price paid (JM is not sure from the Gaz if it was deposit or full price) listed  was £18 8s.

I think Burton Tandy would be noted in the Queensland Early Pioneers Index 1824-1859.  Most likely the QFHS at this link will have further info  http://www.qfhs.org.au/  He also seems to be indexed in the Sth Australian as well as the NSW Govt Gazettes. in the 1840's.

Of course, it would well be that Bertha was married to a Mr Tandy when she was still a slip of a girl, perhaps as young as 12.  But as mentioned several times there are flaws in the NSW BDM online index, presuming she became Mrs Tandy through marriage in the districts that formed NSW in those years 1845-1852.   Have you checked SA marriages for any likely mention of any Mr Tandy marrying there? 

Cheers,  JM

GOLD STARS MUSS  Great Find and Well Done 

Re Mr Tandy

I have suggested checking civil birth registrations and so I have checked several of my own copies of transcripts of NSW BDM from c 1860 ...  One in particular may give you confidence ...  It gives the infant's details of course and the parents too AND not just the mum's nee and former surnames BUT ALSO mum's earlier husband's given names and date of his demise.   Birth was registered 1860 in regional NSW... I assume with mum as the informant it is reliable info but I am not sure IF it was a formal requirement to actually provide that depth of info.  It was for the first born of that marriage and the second marriage was more than 12 months previous to the infant's birth.  Same depth of info is NOT on later siblings bcs.

Either mum was being very particular or the clerk recording the birth was very particular and/or unsure of the then regulations..    Either way  perhaps your KING bcs may have something about Mr Tandy.

Cheers JM

An extra Gold Star from me as well, MUSS. Well found too. ;D

It sure looks like the right Marriage, proving the other shouldn't be too difficult.

I wonder if he is this fellow from one of my earlier posts, which has the family of William Tandy and this Thomas as b1834. Right age at least.

Thomas Tandy, b. 1834, Foleshill, Longford, Warwickshire, ENGLAND, d. date unknown. (POSSIBLY 1850 Otago NZ)

Gee thanks Muss we will all sleep better at night and I am sure Caryn will be gratefull when she sees your work.

Neil  ;) :D

Immigration records to NZ

http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~nzbound/magnet.htm

Well, at that link there's a George GLOVER, wife, son and daughter and also further down the list of early arrivals there's mention of a  Thomas TANDY

The brig Magnet arrived off Waikouaiti Bay on the 16th of March 1840 and that voyage was from Sydney  ;D  umm.... where was Theodore Glover? Perhaps infants were not separately noted and afterall, the source is from 61st anniversary celebration of that voyage.   

Wow, Muss, your find is simply marvelous.
