[horse]

Hi

George Thomas Goodwin
Baptism Date: 12 Jun 1850
Place: Madeley, Shropshire
Parents = William Goodwin & Elizabeth Fletcher*
[*Boycott]

After a long time searching this has now turned up..
George Goodwin
Death Date: 03 Dec 1915
Parents = William Goodwin & Elizabeth Boycott
Registration Place: Queensland
Registration Number: B 022393

I have him from birth to 1861, see also HERE.

Looking for anything between 1862 to his death, especially his arrival. Can't see him on the assisted passages, unless I've overlooked it.

Many thanks
Geoff

Possibly at Southport in 1911.

1878 B5963 Maggie Lovell George Goodwin * no middle name for George on the births

Several deaths in Qld. for a George so more than one in Trove.

Thanks, Dave..

I have nothing on him as an adult, so difficult to second-guess anything

Not sure what a 'doughboy' is in this context, always thought it was a US soldier

So that would be discounted...

There is quite a number of George Goodwin' in 1913 E/R in Qld.

That is way south of Brisbane.

 

[DaveHam9]

May be coincidence there is a place in Qld. with that name.

Tallebudgera and Nerang are near Gold Coast south of Brisbane.


I think we can rule out a 1950 death for a George Thomas being the one in Nerang.

Thanks, Gibbo.. Would age = 0 because it was unknown?

[DaveHam9]

Can't find anything in Trove in Dec 1915.

Yes, ignore the age.

Yeah, I nearly gave up when I first saw the possibles in the E/R's :biggrin:

Toowong is looking quite likely now, though.
