Many thanks once again for these further replies.Just one thought on all this;How close is Leichhardt in New South Wales to the area in Queensland where the Hughes family lived?

I've looked on a map and its roughly 600 miles from where the Hughes family lived.

Are you talking about Ravenswood or Maryborough?

Leichhardt is a suburb of Sydney. Sydney to Maryborough (north of Brisbane) is 1182 km approx 13.5 hrs driving time.

Maryborough to Ravenswood (much further north in Queensland) is 1097 km approx 12 3/4 hrs driving time.

I today's times of course. So a very long way.

Many thanks for your replies.I'm amazed really at the distances involved here.Here in the UK we think of somewhere 50 miles away as quite distant!

Hi, I too am related to Sarah Annie Hughes. Her daughter Thelma May Quince was my grandmother and she was born in Brandon, North Queensland. The family moved soon after to Brisbane. If you look Sarah Annie up on Ancestry and view the West Stevens family tree there is further information. My dad Ron West had previously wrongly labeled some pics which I have now updated with the correct names - I think these are the ones you have viewed. I also have had difficulty finding marriage records of Sarah Annie Hughes and Charles Henry, so am still searching. If you want specific info (including details of the shark attack involving John William Henry Quince) drop me a line and I will be happy to oblige. Thanks. Vicki
