Found this but not sure Note the date of this article and the article you posted with her marriage. Is this not her or did she know him from England maybe

[DaveHam9]

Thanks gibbo.

Don't know if we have 2x Susie Gordon but Edward was born in NSW in 1844 for sure.

 

[gibbo]

Maybe a passenger list would give her age and where she is from to help confirm to eliminate her

I cant even find a marriage index for Barnes and Gordon

 

[DaveHam9]

Mariners and ships in Australian Waters

COMMISSARY
of Aberdeen, FRANCIS WAGSTAFF, MASTER, Burthen 899 Tons
from the Port of LONDON to SYDNEY, New South Wales, 19th November, 1873

Miss Gordon - Cabin - no age - HERE

An error in the index:

1228/1874 BAINES EDWARD P - GORDON SUSANNAH M - BALMAIN

 

[DaveHam9]

Looks like last child so when did Susie die?

11657/1897 BARNES FLORENCE E - EDWARD P - SUSANNAH M - COOTAMUNDRA

EDIT: Did she remarry? Edward died in 1900:

Death 8664/1900 BARNES EDWARD P - JOHN - ELIZABETH K - COOTAMUNDRA

 

[DaveHam9]

7626/1894 hunter joseph gordon susan young
7626/1894 plunker joseph gordon susan young

The system did it again.

I can't find a death for that Susan. Rule her out with this birth:

22385/1875 GORDON SUSAN WILLIAM MARY GRACE YOUNG

Can't find a death in NSW for Susie as GORDON.

 

[DaveHam9]

I don't think it's this one in Qld:

1899/C1771 Whillans Robert - Gordon Susannah

Rule that one out - parents don't match - should be John & Maria.

Death 1950/B25210 Susannah Whillans - William Gordon - Mary Livingstone

 

[DaveHam9]

Possible 2nd marriage in NSW:

4905/1902 MILLER JOHN J - BARNES SUSANNAH M - RICHMOND

Is that Richmond near Windsor/Penrith or Richmond River in northern NSW?

This death does not fit:

18256/1951 MILLER SUSANNAH MARY - WILLIAM - ELIZA - PARRAMATTA

MILLER Susannah Mary Death notice 13JUL1951 Death 91 at Fairfield West Sydney Morning Herald 16JUL1951

No death in NSW as MILLER with parents John & Maria.

 

[DaveHam9]

3rd marriage?

6796/1935 DOUGLAS MILTON W - MILLER SUSANNAH M - WINDSOR


Or a death with parents who fit:

3536/1910 BOWEN SUSAN M - JOHN - MARIA - WAGGA WAGGA

Wagga and Cootamundra are not that far apart.

 

[gibbo]

3rd marriage?

6796/1935 DOUGLAS MILTON W - MILLER SUSANNAH M - WINDSOR

You sure? She would have been 83 :2fun::2fun:

 

[DaveHam9]

You sure? She would have been 83 :2fun::2fun:

I did put a ? meaning I am having problems finding a death - yes born 1852.

Edward's death in 1900 is not in Ryerson.

Very few possible deaths in NSW assuming parents are listed as John & Maria using Susan and variations.

Another death to rule in or out:

14622/1930 BROUGHTON SUSAN - JOHN G L - MARIA - BURWOOD

 

[gibbo]

I did put a ? meaning I am having problems finding a death - yes born 1852.

I cant find one for her neither Interstate maybe?

 

[DaveHam9]

Dunno. I'm stuck.

 

[gibbo]

Dunno. I'm stuck.

Yeah me to :2fun::2fun:

So after all that we still dont know if that is her on that ship in the article neither :2fun::2fun:

 

[gibbo]

3rd marriage?

6796/1935 DOUGLAS MILTON W - MILLER SUSANNAH M - WINDSOR


Or a death with parents who fit:

3536/1910 BOWEN SUSAN M - JOHN - MARIA - WAGGA WAGGA

Wagga and Cootamundra are not that far apart.

I know :biggrin: I was born in Junee.

 

[DaveHam9]

Good.

So can we rule out Susan Bowen?

I can't see a birth or marriage in NSW that fits.

I can't find a tree with Edward Barnes.

 

[gibbo]

I just had a look to see if the Cootamundra cemetery is online to see if she could be there with Edward but couldnt find any online stuff
No online stuff for Wagga that i could see neither. Thought if i could find the burial for the Susan Bowen if might have had age or something on the headstone maybe.

 

[DaveHam9]

Yes, I've looked and nothing old enough on-line. A few Barnes in Wagga but after 1950.

 

[gibbo]

This case is still open then? :2fun::2fun:
