Australia Day 2012: Wealth for Toil (William Donald Webster)

2012-01-26T08:57:00.000+10:00

For this year's Australia Day (26 January) genealogy blogging challenge, Shelley of Twigs of Yore has chosen the theme 'Wealth for Toil' (words from the Australian National Anthem, Advance Australia Fair).

My favourite unit in the Local, Family and Applied History course was Oral History. For one of the assignments I interviewed my father. Here, in Dad's own words, is a description of the work done by his father (my grandfather, William Donald WEBSTER, son of James Campbell WEBSTER and Ellen BUTLER).
---

My father was born in New South Wales, but his family lived in the Cunnamulla area [Queensland] during the late 1880s and 1890s. At Stockyard Creek near Helidon, where the family lived for a while in the early 1900s, Dad worked for a man who used to break in horses, until he learnt how to do it himself. That was his first paid job.

Later he worked for Cobb and Co. That's when he came out west again, working at different Cobb and Co. mail changes. They used to have horses out on the runs, in the paddocks, so that they'd have a change of horses for the mail coaches. His job was to break the horses in, and to keep the supply of horses at every mail change - broken in to harness, and for saddle use. There was a mail change at Barringun, and one halfway to Cunnamulla (at old 'Woggonora', over the river from what's known now as Job's Gate Turnoff), and then Cunnamulla. He would handle about six young horses at the same time, until they were right through to the riding stage.

The mail changes were just a good set of horse yards and a tin hut. They had wells put down for a water supply. In that stretch of the Warrego River there were no permanent water holes, and it was before the artesian bores. They had to have some permanent water, so they had wells for stock and drinking water. There weren't any pumps at first. They had buckets and ropes and pulleys to bring the water up. I remember him saying how there was nearly always a water boy whose job it was to have the tanks filled with water. It's a slow process, filling the tanks one bucket of water at a time! They had the tanks filled so that when the coaches came in, the horses would be given a drink immediately they were unharnessed.

Later my father worked at 'Burrenbilla', which was owned by Rutherford and Company. They had other stations down in New South Wales, and he used to go down to those properties and break in their station horses. After he was married he was manager on various properties. A local stock and station agent lent him the money to enter the ballot for land, and he drew 'Plain View'. [These recollections are continued in Outback Story.]

For last year's Australia Day challenge I wrote about my earliest document for an ancestor in Australia. I look forward to seeing what theme Shelley chooses for 2013.

Vote for Your Favourite Genealogy Speakers and Authors

2012-01-24T08:39:00.000+10:00

It is time to vote for your favourite genealogy speakers and authors - the ones who give 'must attend' presentations at genealogy conferences and/or write 'must read' family history articles or publications.

Before you vote, consider both content and style. Good Content + Irritating Style equals No Vote! Please do the right thing and only vote for speakers whom you have personally heard and would publicly recommend. Don't just automatically vote for your buddies. That won't help conference committees to invite quality speakers!

After attending eight Australasian Congresses, a British National conference, a genealogy conference cruise, various family history fairs and Expos in Australia and London, and countless State conferences, 'Lost In' weekends and shorter seminars, I am a tough judge - but fifteen of the seventy-four nominees won my vote.

~~To vote, go to Anglo-Celtic Connections and follow the link.~~

UPDATE: Not many Australians and New Zealanders voted, so the rankings don't mean much - but I confess to being just a little bit thrilled! The AUS/NZ results are on Anglo-Celtic Connections. I have not heard Nick Barratt or Dick Eastman speak, but I can personally recommend all of the others.

Who are your favourite genealogy speakers?

2012-01-20T08:19:00.001+10:00

It's good to see some genealogy speakers who are known and loved in Australia, New Zealand and the UK in the list and comments on Genealogy Rock Star Nominations Update. I've nominated three (I had to draw the line somewhere!)

Let's join in and ensure that the list is not too biased towards the USA (no offence to my American friends!) [UPDATE: You can vote now. You should only vote for speakers whom you have actually heard and can personally recommend.]

Incidentally, the great Thomas MacEntee of Geneabloggers is planning a speaking tour of Australia and New Zealand in 2013, and has asked which events and societies he should target. If you would like to hear Thomas (I certainly would!) please leave a comment here, mentioning a city, society or 2013 genealogy event where you think Thomas should speak.

UK and Australia: genealogy news

2011-10-06T15:08:00.001+10:00

In these family history 'items of interest' for the United Kingdom and/or Australia, links open in new windows so you won't lose your place on this page.

The Romany and Traveller Family History Society is dedicated to researching British Romany Gypsy, Traveller and Fairground ancestors.

2011 'Who Do You Think You Are' handouts from talks and workshops are free to download.

British Parliamentary Papers are very useful for both British and Irish family history.

A programme and booking form are now available for the Australasian Congress on Genealogy and Heraldry (Adelaide, South Australia, 28-31 March 2012). I'll be there! I've only missed one Congress since 1986.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Family History Fair and State Conference at Inverell last month. The next two NSW and ACT State Conferences will be at Botany Bay (14-16 Sep 2012) and Canberra (2013).

There are three possibilities for another history and genealogy cruise in 2013. You have until 10 Oct 2011 to cast your vote or say why you wouldn't go to a conference like this. (You may have seen my description of Unlock the Past's first conference on a cruise.)

Other news for Australian and UK research is in Updates Genie No.9. Note the item about temporary free access to some Ancestry databases.

You are invited to take part in the 'Genealogists for Families' project. Our motto is, We care about families (past, present and future). We believe that our small actions can make a big difference to those who are less fortunate. This project was initially a way for me to honour my father's memory by continuing his tradition of 'good deeds'. Now others are joining in and thus establishing the tradition in their own families.

Some Australian Commonwealth electoral rolls up to 1980 are now on Ancestry, but scroll down and read 'State and Years Presently Included'. Years with no asterisk have not been indexed. Remember that Queensland has three series of electoral rolls, and the annotated State rolls are much more useful than the Commonwealth rolls on Ancestry.

Campbell immigration 1839: my earliest Australian document

2011-01-25T17:10:00.005+10:00

Graphic by Shelley

To celebrate Australia Day (26 January), Shelley at Twigs of Yore invited us to write about the earliest piece of documentation we have for an ancestor in Australia.

The earliest Australian document I have is an immigration record for my great-great-great-grandmother, Ellen (Helen) CAMPBELL. On 28 Feb 1839, Ellen and her thirteen children arrived at Sydney NSW on the British King. (NSW Immigration Department: Persons on Government Ships, 1839. State Records NSW: 4/4780, pages 230-231.)

The ship sailed from Tobermory in Scotland, but the family came from the Isle of Tiree. Ellen was a widow aged 49. Her children's ages ranged from 3 to 24. One daughter (Anne) was accompanied by her husband, Dr. Donald Rankin MACDONALD, and an infant who died on the voyage.

Helen CAMPBELL, in a letter dated July 1839 (NSW Colonial Secretary In Letters 39/7892 and enclosure; AONSW ref. 4/2454.3) says that her elder daughters obtained situations on arrival, but one was attacked with fever, which obliged one of her sisters to leave her situation to nurse her, and she being also attacked with the same disorder, another sister was also obliged to relinquish her situation to nurse her sick sisters. She 'arrived in this Colony without funds' and 'what little money she has been able to obtain by her own exertions and that of her other children, is now expended and she has no further means of assisting her child who is lying very dangerously ill, and in a state of wretched destitution'.

Ellen's three sons (John, Malcolm John and Archibald) became well known pioneers of Gippsland, Victoria. I have some information about most of Ellen's daughters, who married COCKBURN, COULSON, HOLMES, LAMONT, MACDONALD, McKENZIE, McNAUGHTON, WEBSTER and WELLS.

Believe it or not, Ellen's youngest daughter was named Duncan (her late father's name). She remains a mystery. A Scottish baptism register, NSW shipping records and NSW Colonial Secretary's Office correspondence all say that Duncan was a girl. Her mother's death certificate, 26 Apr 1858, lists Duncan as 'living'. If you are related to a Miss Duncan CAMPBELL born about 1835, please contact me!

Tuesday's Tip: School registers - parent or guardian?

2011-01-25T08:20:00.001+10:00

If someone 'vanished', it may be because they changed their name. If children are involved, try using school admission registers. I once overcome a genealogical dead end by finding a school admission register entry that listed the child's 'parent or guardian' as the mother's new partner. She did not marry him, but she and the children used his surname. Once I knew what that surname was, the research progressed in leaps and bounds.

Australian school admission registers should be either at the school or in State Archives. By law, historical societies or museums should only hold copies, not originals. Many indexes to school registers are listed in the book Specialist Indexes in Australia: a Genealogist's Guide (1998 edition and 2006 Supplement). For specific advice about Queensland school records, see the latest edition of the book Tips for Queensland Research. Those books are described in more detail on my Web site.

Some indexes to Queensland school records can now be searched via FindMyPast.com.au. They are in the category Miscellaneous Records and Reference.

Unregistered deaths: look for inquests (Tuesday's Tip)

2010-09-21T05:00:00.007+10:00

If you cannot find a death registration, look for an inquest. You will often find an inquest file (Justice Department or similar) and/or a newspaper report for a death that was not registered. This definitely happened in Queensland and Victoria. Have you seen the same thing elsewhere?

For advice on Queensland's inquest files see the tips page on my Web site and the latest edition of the book Tips for Queensland Research.

London 1886-1903: Charles Booth Enquiry (Follow Friday)

2010-09-17T04:54:00.003+10:00

'Follow Friday' is a theme used by Geneabloggers. This week my recommendation is the Charles Booth Online Archive, a searchable resource giving access to maps and original notebooks created during an in-depth study of poverty, industry and religion in London, England, 1886-1903.

It is fascinating to learn about the streets where your ancestors lived and worked. Colours on maps indicate the income and social class of the inhabitants of each street. The maps cover a section of London from Hammersmith in the west to Greenwich in the east, and from Hampstead in the north to Clapham in the south.

Before you search by street, surname or occupation, read the guide for family historians.

Casino NSW: genealogy seminar, Nov 2010

13 Sep 1764 (246 years ago) - Edward BARBER and Mary BIRKS were married at Bolton upon Dearne, Yorkshire, England. Was the Elizabeth BARBER who married William HUDSON their daughter? [Maybe my great-great-great-grandparents?]

13 Sep 1810 (100 years ago) - Duncan CAMPBELL and Helen CAMPBELL were married on the Isle of Tiree, Argyllshire, Scotland. After Duncan died, his wife Helen (or Ellen) and her children emigrated to Sydney, NSW, Australia on the British King. Her sons were pioneers of Gippsland (Victoria). [Great-great-great-grandparents]

18 Sep 1768 (242 years ago) - Elizabeth Harley PORTER was baptised at Stockwell Chapel, Lambeth, Surrey, England. Elizabeth was a daughter of James PORTER and Catherine HARLEY, and the wife of William WEBSTER. I am still looking for a record of Elizabeth WEBSTER's death (maybe about 1851). [Great-great-great-great-grandmother]

If you are researching these families, I will gladly provide full details of my sources, which include parish registers. My thanks to Michael Flynn for his help.

Freedom certificate, James Webster (Treasure Chest Thursday)

2010-09-06T13:44:00.001+10:00

One of my family treasures is the original Certificate of Freedom issued to my great-great-great-grandfather, James WEBSTER, on 1 July 1823. James had been apprenticed to John PORTER, a stationer of Pall Mall, London, whom we believe was his uncle. (Thanks to Michael FLYNN for his help with the PORTER research.)

This certificate was entrusted to me by Rodney CARR. It was handed down through his branch of the family (descendants of James WEBSTER's eldest daughter, Sarah). The authenticity of this large document, only a portion of which is shown above, was confirmed by the Worshipful Company of Stationers and Newspaper Makers.

James's parents, William WEBSTER and Elizabeth PORTER, are the starting point of the Webster Descendants' Chart on my Web site.

('Treasure Chest Thursday' is a theme used by Geneabloggers.)

On This Day - WEBSTER, TEAGUE, GIBLETT and SHEPPARD

2010-09-05T04:00:00.011+10:00

England and Wales probate index 1858-1941

2010-09-03T11:59:00.002+10:00

Ancestry.co.uk has put part of the National Probate Calendar for England and Wales online as Index of Wills and Administrations 1861-1941, but it has some gaps.

The Society of Australian Genealogists and some other large libraries have the full National Probate Calendar 1858-1941 on microfiche. It includes all the years that are missing from Ancestry's database (1858-1860, 1863, 1868, 1873, 1876, 1877, 1883, 1888, 1899-1903, 1910-1911). Most index entries include the deceased's full name, date and place of death, probate date and registry where issued. Some give other details (deceased's address and occupation, executor's name and occupation, etc.)

Some post-1941 indexes are at LDS Family History Centres.

On This Day - BUTLER and MUSTELL

2010-09-02T10:25:00.001+10:00

30 Aug 1910 (100 years ago) - Mary Jane BUTLER (nee NICHOLSON) was buried at Rookwood Cemetery, Sydney NSW Australia. Mary Jane is something of a mystery. She was allegedly born at Enniskillen, Fermanagh, Ireland, c1828-1830, a daughter of Richard NICHOLSON, a soldier. I think she is probably the Sarah Jane NICHOLSON who married Robert BUTLER in NSW in 1856. [Great-great-grandmother, James Campbell Webster line]

31 Aug 1822 (188 years ago) - Anne MUSTELL was born in London, Middlesex, England. She was the daughter of Thomas MUSTELL and Anne VAUGHAN, and the wife of William James WEBSTER. Anne was buried in the Old Cemetery, Camberwell, Surrey, England, on 2 Sep 1891 (119 years ago this week). [Wife of my great-great-granduncle]

If you are researching these families, I will gladly provide full details of my sources, which include a family bible, a letter from Camberwell New Cemetery, and marriage and death certificates. My thanks to Anne Reece and Rhonda Newell for their help.

LostCousins is free this week

2010-08-31T15:38:00.003+10:00

Until Sunday 5th September 2010, the LostCousins site is completely free. You can contact any relatives you are matched with even if you only have free standard membership. Ask your fellow family historians to spread the word, because the more people who use the site, the more likely you are to find someone who is researching your family.

LostCousins is probably the only web site that identifies (with virtually 100% accuracy) people who share the same ancestors. You do not waste time corresponding with people who are not related to you.

To use LostCousins you need to find your relatives in the census for England & Wales 1841, 1881 or (a recent addition) 1911, Scotland 1881, United States 1880, Canada 1881 or Ireland 1911. Then you enter the source/page details at LostCousins. Read their instructions (see 'Information - Read this first') before gathering and entering data, as requirements for each census are different. If you prepare well, entering the data is a lot quicker. Be sure to include brothers and sisters of your direct ancestors, because it is their descendants who are the 'cousins' you want to contact.

After entering some relatives, click 'Search', and the system checks whether someone else has entered identical data. Remember to log in periodically, go to your 'My Ancestors' page and click 'Search' again.

Postems on FreeBMD (England and Wales)

2010-08-25T17:37:00.006+10:00

FreeBMD is an ongoing project to transcribe civil registration indexes of births, marriages and deaths for England and Wales, and to provide free Internet access to the transcribed indexes. The result of one of my index searches looked like this:

I clicked 'Info' to add a Postem.

In this case I could have added a Postem by clicking either 'Info' or the envelope icon; but the envelope icon only appears if someone has already created a Postem for this entry.

In the Postem I said, 'Contact Judy at (I quoted an email address that will be valid long-term)'. To my surprise and delight, someone has just contacted me as a result of my Postem! Bertha OAKLEY was her great-aunt.

Bertha's grandfather (Benjamin PEACOCK) and my great-grandmother (Mary HUDSON nee PEACOCK) were brother and sister.

FreeBMD is a great site, and I love it even more now that it has produced this unexpected bonus!

CuriousFox (Follow Friday)

2010-08-21T09:32:00.002+10:00

CuriousFox, http://www.curiousfox.com/, is a gazetteer and message system that connects family and local historians. Every town and village in the UK and Ireland has its own page for messages. (I have not personally used the USA version.) Things I like about CuriousFox include:

Exact map locations and historic maps.
Finding relevant entries is easier when you search at village level.
You can search for 'nearby' entries.
Editing or deleting your messages is easy.
People will also find your entries via Google searches.
No spam (the system sends messages between members; no email addresses are visible).
Free to join, add messages, and search by village or surname.
Advantages of being a paying member (£5/year) include: you can contact and be contacted by all other members (free or paying); you can receive email alerts when people add messages for towns of interest to you; and you can list the URL of your Web page or blog.

HINTS:

Give some thought to the wording of your messages. They should be concise, with surnames in capital letters. Specify dates, and use appropriate punctuation.
For large towns with many entries, I delete my entry every year and immediately resubmit it so that it reappears near the top of the list. I did this recently, and within 24hrs a local historian contacted me and offered to send transcriptions of land records for that surname/town!

I hope you will try Curious Fox and share your success stories.

Genealogy Conference on a Cruise

2010-07-26T07:35:00.002+10:00

1 April 2011. Updated information is now on Genealogy Leftovers - genealogy conference on a cruise (Pacific Dawn).
