Thanks Val.

When I didn't find the birth as Devir in NSW index I thought perhaps born Ireland.

DEVAR JOHN P 24821/1883 JOHN - BRIDGET - WAGGA WAGGA

NSW Birth 7089/1887 BURCHAM MARGARET M - WILLIAM - JANE - ST PETERS

 

[DaveHam9]

John Devir married Bridget O’Donnell 17 Feb 1878

So far I can't find that marriage.

I also can't find John's death.


So mother as Ellen is an error ? And middle name Patrick is also an error for J P's father.

Anything more for this one Dave?

 

[DaveHam9]

Marriage and death not found gibbo.

I checked Ireland and didn't find the marriage.

I have the Burcham deaths.

Death 8241/1925 BURCHAM JANE B - ALLAN - MARY - KOGARAH * 16 May

Woronora site down.

Death 13082/1936 BURCHAM WILLIAM - WILLIAM - EMMA - ROCKDALE * 1 Aug

 

[DaveHam9]

Don't know if Margaret M is a sister.

This can't fit that birth.

Marriage 1860/1900 SCHNEIDER FREDERICK W - BURCHAM MARGARET M - NYNGAN


Death BURCHAM MARGARET MABEL 12460/1956 WILLIAM - JANE - ROCKDALE

Location fits.

 

[DaveHam9]

If Ireland then there should be an arrival 1878 - 1881.

 

[DaveHam9]

Earliest in index

DEVIR MARY 1382/1881 JOHN - BRIDGET - SYDNEY

 

[DaveHam9]

Did John remarry?

5617/1887 DEVER JOHN - FEENAN MARY - EAST MAITLAND

6514/1893 DEVER JOHN - DOWNES ALICE - SINGLETON

No death as Dever with parents who fit.

The Dever families in Hunter area are probably not connected.

 

[DaveHam9]

If John was born Ireland abt 1855 he arrived married or not but I can't find his arrival.

If Bridget married in NSW then ...

??
Bridget O'DONNELL 2 Forest Monarch 1858 Sydney and/or Newcastle Reel 2138, [4/4795]; Reel 2477, [4/4974] * dv

Bridget O'DONNELL 1 Lady Elma Bruce 1859 Sydney and/or Newcastle Reel 2139, [4/4795]; Reel 2479, [4/4979] * Francis & Catherine from Donegal

I've searched Trove for 'devir' AND 'o'donnell' and no hits that help. Several possible deaths for Francis and Catherine in NSW index.

Thanks gibbo.

I had not seen that before.

Says Bridget's father was James.

The marriage was in Ireland so arrival as Devir/Dever/Devar/ 1878 - 1881.
