No Fernie Simpson in 1861, 1871 or 1881 England or Scotland census.

No death in England after 1868 for a Fernie Simpson.

Fernie appears as a surname and middle name on SP records. Wyness appears as a surname on SP.

Murwillumbah very close to the Qld. border.

Unsure what else you have, Dave.. This has a couple of relatives, unfortunately nothing re. parents..

There are trees and have these as parents of John b. 1869. Not checked

"John Simpson
1841 Cumberland –

Jane Rodger
1844 Durham –"

They also point to this census..

Thanks Geoff.

I've looked at that and found nothing that fitted.

The marriage for John & Jane (not Fernie) not found. The birth reg for Joseph & John not found.

Last time around I didn't have Jane's maiden name so will look again.

Could the George Henry with Fernie be a son?
