DEATHS
EDWARDS.-December 14, 1908, at Burdett-street, Hornsby, Charles G. Edwards, the beloved husband of E. Edwards, aged 36 years. (No flowers)

I'd like a look up please for Charles G. in 1891.

A possibility for the connection is the marriage but a couple censuses are bit out or I'm following the wrong one.

This is probably a bit more useful..

Annie Sophie could be Grayling, her mother was Sarah Ann Grayling.

If these are Charles G's offspring, he was in NSW before 1897

25925/1897 EDWARDS MAVIS J CHARLES G ESTHER J ST LEONARDS
26030/1902 EDWARDS PHYLLIS E CHARLES G ESTHER J ST LEONARDS

So his wife would be Esther (fits with the E Edwards in the SMH)

I can't see an obvious marriage in NSW. There are a couple in England, but don't look right.

Hi Geoff,

It appears they are Charles's offspring. Lots of names in it that could help. Brides mother is noted as Mrs Beaumont so looks like a remarriage after Charles died.

I was hoping a notice from the papers might say when he arrived here but so far nothing.

 

[horse]

I found a couple of possible arrivals for a master Chas T Edwards in in the mid 1870's but that was a Charles Thomas Edwards and he made a number of trips including the US..

There was a suggestion in one tree that Jean married a James Spensley also, no indication when

 

[gibbo]

He was at one stage a traveller so he could have married anywhere

Deceased, who was at one time traveller for Sargood, Butler and Co., leaves a wife and two children. He was only 36 years of age.

 

[horse]

Oh! 30y, he should have been about 36y..

 

[gibbo]

Oh! 30y, he should have been about 36y..

Oh its ok, i made a boo boo redf) I have edited and fixed it. He was 36 and not 30. I must have been trying to make him look good for his age :biggrin:

 

[horse]

[DaveHam9]

Thanks Geoff and gibbo.

I'm still very lost. I can't say it's late in the day. :biggrin:

So Esther's death reg has an error with her father's name.

Just Rushton missing, Dave...

 

[DaveHam9]

So Jean EDWARDS was born in Victoria - maiden name REID.

Was her first marriage in Victoria?

 

[DaveHam9]

Mavis Jean married Stanley Stephen DOWNES - just off my main line - 3rd cousin once removed or something. :biggrin:

 

[DaveHam9]

Just Rushton missing, Dave...

Yes but death reg has her father as Charles.

Death 28972/1957 BEAUMONT ESTHER JANE - CHARLES - JANE - CHATSWOOD

But it's the right one although she waited 4 years to remarry. Youngest was only 6 when Charles G. died.
