WA Convict: Thomas Veal(e) alias John Hockines (Hawkins)

[Dundee]

FishMan sorry to hijack your thread, but just a few extra bits on the HAYWARDS...

Thomas Burnet HAYWARD's admission to St Paul's School (note the address)

His father's death:

The Times (London, England), Monday, Jan 10, 1853; pg. 9; Issue 21321.

"On the 6th instant, Thomas Hayward Esq., of 80, Guildford Street, and Mincing Lane, aged 47."

I think this is TBH's uncle, brother of his father Thomas (above)

Some extremely long obits in the newspapers of the day, this is just a bit:

The Wrexham Advertiser, Friday, February 08, 1884; pg. 7

"...and a wreath of violets sent 'in loving remembrance' by Belgian friends the Count and Countess S.J. de Limburg Stirum."

"From St James's Church the body was conveyed to Highgate Cemetery, where a brother, Mr Thomas HAYWARD, was interred."

Correspondence of Abraham HAYWARD, the first chapter has a little family history:

[Sandra_Fallon]

Thomas Hayward [father] is listed in the Western Australia Parliament;

Sandra,

Your descendant Annie Baxter (aka Bisp) (previously Hayward) (nee Orr) died in 1876 and is buried in the Geraldton, WA district as is her 2nd husband Charles William Baxter (aka Bisp) who died in 1892. The registration number for Annie's death certificate from the WA Registry of BDM is 9072/1876 if you want to purchase it. It may provide a lot of answers for you. Hope you'll share them?

I will share what documents I come across.
But I do have Janet Hayward's marriage and death certificates. It does state who her parents were. They are Thomas Burnet Hayward [Sea Merchant Captain] and Annie Orr.

Hi Sandra,

I made a great new discovery today – I found the Orr family in the 1851 Census of Scotland.
John Orr aged 26, b. Lanarkshire, Scotland, baker employing 2 men; Janet Orr aged 28, b. Paisley, Renfrewshire, Scotland, wife; Janet Orr aged 3 mths, b. Paisley, Renfrewshire, Scotland, daughter; living at 99 Causeyside Street, Paisley, Renfrewshire, Scotland.
Ann Orr aged 6, b. Edinburgh, Midlothian, Scotland is listed in the household of her uncle and aunt Alexander & Mary Borland who lived at 20 Great Hamilton Street, Paisley, Renfrewshire, Scotland. The two homes are less than 700m apart.

I am certain this is your Ann (Annie) because the subsequent 1861 Census shows a nephew James Orr (who was crossed off the passenger list - see original post) aged 7 and living with the Borlands at 6 South Campbell Street, Paisley.

There are step-children in the Borland household indicating that the Houston children are Mary’s from a previous marriage. A little added hump in working out the exact relationship between the Orrs and Borlands?
