This Word document is a work in progress...CLICK HERE OR RIGHT CLICK TO SAVE AS

But I'm posting it now as I find it useful when I want to sort and search groups of names by place or date.

I've used colour to group what I think are families.

If you have any other information to add to the table, I'd be happy to hear it .. and then I'll add an update.


LAST UPDATE OF TABLE: 18 March, 2012

Family Names

-
Some of this blog is for me ... to keep track of my findings ... to share with my family... But some of it I am hoping will be fragrant flowers attracting other family detectives ... long lost relatives ... family names. While my intention is to the privacy of the living ... here are the names on my family tree long since passed. My father's paternal side is missing ... but I know who they are ... I just don't think they know who we are ... so until then .. psst, it's a secret. Of course, if you are one of the Family Detectives ... please leave a comment and lets see if we can't help each other out! FATHER'S MATERNAL NAMES John Laing Herny Laing John Lang Agnes Lang Elizabeth Annan John Ross Ellen Ross Ann Ross Adam Weathersone Henry Butts Elizabeth Butts Mary Lee Sarah Weatherstone Michael Toomey Catherine Toomey (Tormey) Ann Chance MOTHERS PATERNAL NAMES James Hardy Jane Cadman Edith Scott James Scott Robert Scott George Scott Sarah Scott Elizabeth Gibson Sarah H

Sarah Weatherstone Part 1 From Birth to Departure

Sarah Age 18, based on Convict Indent descriptions  When I was handed some family history papers on our Lang family, each person's background information took about a page. Sarah Weatherstone's entire life was written in 2 sentences. It seemed little was available on her in 2004, yet 10 years later she is the ancestor in my family tree that I know most about. I don't think I would have liked her, but then again she grew up in tough times and perhaps things would have been different for Sarah if she'd been born in a different place and time.  My research is ongoing and already new information has come to light and had me spending a few nights editing this post and Part 2.  Part 3 is being written, but the research is taking longer, because it's once she reaches Australia that we really do find out a lot about Sarah!

Michael Cotter - The Details

-
I belong to the Cotter Clan. The last surviving male from my branch recently told me "you're definitely a Cotter". I never realised how much interest or information there was out there about my Cotter family. A great deal of the information carefully checked over and redistributed by one amazing Daffyd Cotter. The following profile is mostly put together with information supplied by Daffyd. As I have time I will include some of the stories I've learnt about Michael, including his time as a convict, the time he spent in goal, his family, being held up by bushrangers, and his death. 1809 or 1812 - born in or around Fermoy, County Cork, Ireland - (Father was James) 20th May 1830 - stole a sheep from a William Hennessy. Occupation listed as Ploughman & Reaper 21st May 1830 - arrested in Rathcormac with the stolen sheep 17th August 1830 - tried and found guilty for theft sometime between August and November 1830 - sentenced to seven years transportation to N.S.W.
