Hi All,
Sue, this is trivial but, re Eliza, I didn’t think that the Saffron Waldon one fitted. Partly because she is not in the right order for the names on Alfred William’s birth cert but also because she was born (and died) Sep qtr 1843 and this would not fit with Henry who was born Jun qtr 1843. But of course FreeBMD is not complete and, without the certificates, it is just guesswork.
As an aide-memoire to myself I’ll try to set down events (and possible events) and add a couple of additional ones – hope it’s correct.
1836 – Thomas ALBON, a convict, married, arrives in Australia on the ‘Lady Nugent’
1841 – Joshua JUDD marries Phoebe MANSFIELD, Dec qtr, Saffron Walden
1843 – Henry JUDD born, Jun qtr, Saffron Walden
1844 – Henry JUDD dies, Sep qtr, Saffron Walden
1845 – Joseph JUDD born, Sep qtr, Saffron Walden
1848 – Sarah Ann JUDD born, Sep qtr, Saffron Walden
1848 – JUDD family arrives in Australia in November on the ‘Royal George’; George (34), Phoebe (26), Joseph (4), Sarah Ann (Infant)
18?? – Eliza (true parentage unknown) born; she dies before the birth of Alfred William ALBON in 1863
18?? – David (true parentage unknown) born; he dies before the birth of Alfred William ALBON in 1863
1852-55 – Emma (true parentage unknown) born; the later birthdate is from her age of 8 on birth cert of Alfred William ALBON, earlier date from her age of 62 at death in 1914.
1856 – A George JUDD dies
1860 – John Thomas ALBON is born and dies in Footscray
1863 – Alfred William ALBON is born and dies in Footscray
1863 – A Joshua JUDD marries an Elizabeth LEWIS
1868 – Thomas ALBON (born Bedfordshire) marries Phoebe JUDD nee MANSFIELD (born Essex); Thomas is described as a bachelor and Phoebe as a widow with a date in that column of 1851. Thomas says he has no children; Phoebe says she has 3 living and 5 dead.
1871 – Joseph ALBON (born Essex) marries Jane STANNARD (born London); they have a son b Melb N, died Carl.
1872 – Thomas ALBON, age 56, parents unknown dies
1873 – Emma ALBON (born Footscray) marries John STEWART; they have children in Footscray
1873 – Sarah Ann ALBON (born Essex) marries John MONK; they have children in Footscray
1877 – Joseph Judd ALBON (born Essex) marries Harriet YOUNG; they have children in Prahran and Melb
1878 – Phoebe ALBON (born Essex) marries Richard William WEARING (born Greenwich)
1885 – Phoebe WEARING dies, age 64, father Mansfield Jno, mother Abigail, at Footscray
1886 – Sarah Ann MONK dies, age 37, father Alton (sic) Thos, mother Phoebe Albon MANSFIELD, at Footscray
1914 – Emma STEWART dies, age 62, father given as Thomas Albon and mother as Phoebe.
1917 - Jos Judd ALBON dies, age 72, parents Thomas ALBON and Phoebe MANSFIELD, at Cheltenham
So we have the death of Thomas ALBON, we have the death of Phoebe MANSFIELD later JUDD later ALBON later WEARING, we have the death of Sarah Ann JUDD aka ALBON later STEWART, we have the death of Emma (father unproven) known as ALBON later MONK, and now we have (later post from Genni) the death of Joseph JUDD aka ALBON. I don’t seem to have the death of Joseph JUDD aka ALBON.
However, the most important thing for Donna, whose interest is in Thomas ALBON, is whether or not Emma is a biological child of Thomas’s. That doesn't seem to be something we can find out? Also, of course, whether Thomas fathered any children between his arrival in 1836 and whenever it was that he took up with Phoebe...
