Thank you for looking for me, Cherilyn. He is somewhere but where?

I have found that he was born in Kent and emigrated on the Beejapore.

His grandmother's maiden name was Wisdom! So ,added a little more to his story.

Thank you again.

Hello Cherilyn,

James William Wisdom MARSH b.1833 (parents Jesse and Annabella Marsh) married my great grandmother, Rosina Whiteman, widow 1859 in Camden, NSW. They had two children.

In 1869 Rosina, widow, married William McGregor, in Sydney.


I cannot find a death for James William Wisdom MARSH despite much searching. He may have been a shopkeeper in Camden, but I am not sure of that.

I would be very grateful if you could please have a look for me and see if you can find his death.

Warmest thanks for your help.

Reece

Hi Cherilyn

Alexander Murray Allen was the nephew of Andrew Gibb Murray
apparently they traveled over to Australia in 1855 and their was a John Baird Murray on the same ship Red Jacket arriving in Melbourn March 1855.

In the 1841 census he was down as Alexander A Murray but his birth was Alexander Murry Allen

Hi Sylvia

His death reg

Surname: MURRAY
Given Names: Andrew Gibb
Event: D
Father: Alexander
Mother: Ann UNKNOWN
Age: 26
Birth Place: LINL
Year: 1858
Reg Number: 4819

I have ruled out a possible marriage in 1851 (as Andrew Murray not Andrew Gibb Murray) as they still had children into the 1860s; also his middle name of Gibb not on any of the chn's births. They lived in Colac.

Was his brother Alexander Allen MURRAY (not Alexander Murray ALLEN)? Can't see him as either. Also can't see Andrew's arrival. Lots of Alexanders.

HI Cane
Do you have any more information about Richard? Was he still in the UK in 1891/1901/1911 censuses? Do you know his parents names? Or where in Australia he settled? Did he marry in the UK? Without more info it may be difficult to find him.

Hi Cherilyn

Is it possible to look for an Andrew Gibb Murray b 1831 Linlithgow west lothian please
I've just found out he died 1858 in Victoria, aged 26
Not sure when he went to Australia ? he was 8 in the 1841 census living in Linlithgow West Lothian
He possibly went on his own as his parents were still in Scotland
I would be grateful for anything you might find

I;ve just found out his cousin was there also Alexander Murray Allen they might have been together??

Hi Cherilyn,

Could you see what infor you can find on descendents of Alexander Murray Boyd. Born in Liberton, Edinburgh 1892. Emigrated to Australia 1912?. Enlisted in AIF in 1915 in Kalgoorlie. He married Daisy Dent Greene in 1918. Died around 1940 in Sydney, where is wife was listed as Eileen. I know there was one son, also Alexander Murray Boyd who died in 1979 in Sydney. But I think there may have been children from his marriage to Daisy. He was in Perth until around 1925/26 when he moved to Sydney.

Would love to know if there are any descendents still alive.
Any info would be much appreciated.
Penny

Surname: CRISP
Given Names: George William
Event: B
Father: George William [b. London, m. 1876 Vic]
Mother: Marian CROSBIE [d. 30/4/1908 Gindalbie, WA goldfields, aged 55]
Birth Place: SAGO HILL
Year: 1877
Reg Number: 18197

Surname: CRISP
Given Names: George William
Father: George William
Mother: Unknown CROSBIE
Death Place: MILD
Age: 91
Year: 1969
Reg Number: 18911
Event: D

It appears George's father, Geo Wm CRISP snr, arrived in Victoria in 1857 aged 8 as a child, with his father also Geo Wm (33) and brother Chas Tho (4) (actually Chas Jno). Also a Mary CRISP aged 58 (possibly mother and grandmother). Both boys were born in London.

The eldest Geo Wm died in 1865 aged 42, born Cambridge, son Wm & Mary Ann (nee WOLLARD). Chas Jno died in 1888 in Warrnambool aged 35, son of Geo Wm & Elizabeth (nee CORK).

A sad tale of lots of young parents dying in this one, I'm afraid!
