Bill MORLEY's family- SA

[deeiluka]

Unfortunately, lots of births etc for the period we're looking at are missing.....either unregistered, or the registrations haven't survived. Sometimes local registrations haven't made the index as well.

There’s the baptism on FreeREG of Mary GREEN , 20th May 1827 at St Peter’s, Hockwold, Norfolk. Parents John GREEN, labourer,  and Sarah.

So annoying that mother's maiden name isn't given.

Found John GREEN & Sarah's marriage on FamilySearch.

26th September 1819 Hockwood (Hockwold) Norfolk.
But Sarah's surname is given as SHIN!!!!!!
That's not too far from SWAN though.         

Added.....it's SHIN on FreeREG too.

Back on the John GREEN thing. I think you may be right about him actually being James' son, because on the census he is stated as son, not step-son or son-in-law (I have seen them described as this).
No I couldn't find one for Emma either.
It is a pity we can't find registrations for James or Susan Ann who must also have been born in SA. It'd be interesting to see what the maiden name of Mary was given as. Perhaps SWAN was her mother's maiden name. I have another ancestor, who on most of her children's birth registrations used her mother's maiden name, rather than her's.

The James MORLEY aged 23 who married Catherine Elizabeth DORMAN in 1885, father James MORLEY, wasn't the son of your James MORLEY and Mary SWAN or GREEN. He was the son of another James MORLEY and Ela GREGORY. (BISA)

Yes, I had concluded that that wasn't our James.
SHIN, well it is closer than GREEN. Also it could've been a middle name or anything.

Hi I'm fairly sure you are researching my family on my dads side susan ann morley came from Burra Burra south aust and went to cygnet in Tasmania? Bacon is another name, we were surname free but was changed to brown

I am interested to know the background of 'deeiluka' and about the photo Mrs Dee and me.  We are trying to locate the background of Susan Ann Morley born around 1860 in Burra SA.  Her father was James Morley. Deeiluka bears a striking resemblance to some of our family members and I wondered if she comes from that line?

Thank you Cristobel for the post on the marriage of Susan Ann Morley to Joseph Henry Bacon.  We cannot find any records of Susan's birth and there are so many Susans and James's (her father).  Would appreciate it if anyone has any more information on these two.   Am interested in Handy771's research as they are correct - Susan Ann married a Bacon and their youngest son John's youngest daughter married a Brown.

Hello Birdy22,
I'm sorry that I haven't replied sooner, but I've been in the process of moving house and our internet was only connected on Friday last. I'm gradually trying to catch up in between unpacking boxes!

Morley is not a name on our family tree. My mother's line contains the names Bauer, Ehmcke, Selway, Button, Deimel and Redwood.

Feel free to use the personal message system of RootsChat is you want to chat personally about the similarity.
