Thanks Geoff.

I have a hand-written tree with details of the family but I have no idea when it was done or by whom. A lot of the family lore notes on it have proved to be inaccurate. It had Margaret going to Victoria to keep house for brother John when John's wife Mary died. Turns out Margaret married in Ireland and arrived in Victoria with 2 sons before Mary died.

I have nothing on Ellen NEWELL. I know the family name is correct from various records. A few records have her name as Helen. No idea where or when she was born or parents. The tree has Ellen's death as 1868 aged 98. I doubt she had children in 1830s.

Dave
