Find Living Relatives

Elaine, as this is a thread about a specific family, it won't be much use to you. I take it you found it by searching the surname Campbell?

Much better to start a new thread of your own and we'll be able to help you without getting confused by the names on this thread :-)

You will see "add topic" at the top right of the boards, as you are looking for a marriage from the early 1800s it would be best to post on the "Find Ancestors" board.

Hope it's OK to post this here. Catharine brown, married to Arthur Hughes abt 1825,her parents were Richard Brown and Mary Campbell. I'm looking for Richard and Mary's marriage with no luck. Would assume they married about 1800 ish. Catharine was born 1805. Thanks PS if the name Arthur Hughes means anything to anyone I would love to hear from you. I've been been looking for him for years _he's my gtgtgt grandfather

John...It may be as well to send a PM (Personal Message) to Debra as I have not seen her post on the boards since Feb....

Just click on her name

just been reading your posts I remember the nighthey all died my mother had to identify the bodies my name is john welsh annie was my fathers sister

Please Debra, if you are planning to research this family...........take note of the fact that there is no 'R' in the name COWLEY.

You'll find it difficult if you don't search using the correct surname..................

Hi the sandford is my great grandmother Catherine Crowley killed at Sydney place's maiden name, I knew that there was another death the same time as Catherine but didn't know the name ,all we knew was that she saved her son Patrick's life as she laid over him and I can remember as a child meeting him in edge hill,they used to call him paddy, the family didn't speak about the war etc and my mum is73 and she only remembers little things,so it is becoming frustrated now ,thank you for your help

So where do the names Crowley and O'hara come into it please?

Sarah's not down as a widow in 1911, so looks like enumerator was mistaken in 1901.
