Jane NINIANSON - What became of her....

[judb]

Here's a bit of a long shot
1841
Gean Ninianson, 15 (b abt 1826), female, occ: FS
Born in county
Civil Parish:   Sandsting and Aithsting County:   Orkney and Shetland
Address:   Northhouse Of ****
Parish Number:   9   
Marion Anderson   75
Malley Anderson   35
Gean Ninianson   15

Unfortunately no image for this entry, and it doesn't help much anyway.  At the risk of being flippant - what an address. 

Edit to add:  Apparently the sensibilities of R'chat won't allow the whole address of this record to be shown!!      The asterisks were added by them, not me!

Essie - Thanks for that further info.

Judb -  Those are tears of laughter.... I've seen it spelt with two T's at the end as well, lol!

That is the Gean I mentioned previously.  Interesting because on the Shetland FH website I was given earlier, the William NINIANSON family with baby Janet and also daughters Elizabeth and Isabella, although ages don't match, his wife is noted as Isabella nee ANDERSON.  Marion maybe Gean's grandma!  Gean may well be Jane.

I do not have Ellen COLLINS' DC.  I didn't have much interest until yesterday when I came across the unusual NINIANSON surname.  I have WA's obit but not his will.

oh bitz - I need to go back and read it all again!

You can look for the will here.

He divvied up his estate to his children, leaving his (2nd) wife provided for in her life-time. The PROV site sometimes takes a while to load up the actual image.  I find I have to click more than once at times.  Clicking deliberately (rather than a swift flick) seems to be a help.

Hi

Is anyone able to check the 1921 SA death of Elizabeth JAQUES at Port Augusta.  I'm interested to see if there are parents mentioned?!

Many thanks as ususal.

Elizabeth JAQUES death notice may be helpful - no parents but she is the sister of Mrs M Barnes of Mile End and late of Glanville
aunt of E T Barnes, Arne? Bay, W A Barnes and Mrs L H Parker of Mile End.

There are other notices which only mention her deceased husband, and a few state that she was in her 87th year, thus b abt 1835

Essie has her as marrying John JAQUES in 1891, aged 48 which gives a birthdate abt 1843

Mary ‘NIMINSON’ aged 27, daughter of WILLIAM 'NIMINSON' married George BARNES on 28 Jun 1876 at Glanville. Port Adelaide  100/583

Five children to this couple. Mary's surname recorded as IVESON, 2xNINIANSON, NINIONSON and MINIONSON!


Bitzar, parents names not on SA death certificates back then.

Essie

col, Elizabeth had been married to George LEASK previously.

1876   109/428,    Port Adelaide
George LEASK, Elizabeth NINIANSON   

Good find Essie; so Mary ‘NIMINSON’, dau of WILLIAM 'NIMINSON was aged 27 in 1876, thus a birthdate abt 1849. 

Beginning to come together.
