Death 3573/1871 PEPPER HENRY - JAMES - MARY - GOULBURN

So far I've not found a remarriage or a death for Victoria. Parents are John & Ann.

 

[gibbo]

Im not finding anything on Victoria. What do we know of the daughter, Elizabeth? I havent been able to find anything on her neither

 

[DaveHam9]

Thanks for looking gibbo.

No, Elizabeth seems to have been their only child. I've found nothing on her either.

 

[gibbo]

A strange one Dave, seems like mother and daughter just disappeared into thin air

Something doesnt seem right with this one. Hope they didnt come to any harm.
There is no notices for missing persons or divorce in Trove that i can find.

 

[DaveHam9]

No problem with sister:

Error with mother's name. Correct one is Ann:

I'd better find another query. :biggrin:

 

[horse]

Yeah, I looked at this one for a good while and drew the same conclusions..

However, I don't know if you noticed, but on the 'Bee' was a Bridget Flood, parents Thomas and Maria both dead.

Bridget Flood
Birth Year: abt 1835
Age: 21
Arrival Date: 6 Jan 1856
Vessel Name: Bee

Bridget looks to be a sponsor of an Eliza Flood who arrived 1858..

I wonder if this is the correct Henry

Henry Pepper

Event Type: Theft

There is this in Trove, not too far from Goulburn > http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/60499120?searchTerm=henry pepper goulburn&searchLimits=

I should have said Binalong not too far from Goulburn and not Bombala as quoted in the Trove article.

Geoff

 

[DaveHam9]

Thanks Geoff.

Didn't notice Bridget. Thought it worth tracing sister Victoria. No idea if there is any connection between Bridget and Victoria.

I did notice that Victoria said her mother was living in Dublin and a year later Emma said her mother was dead.

Would have to be the same Henry Pepper. His death not in Ryerson. Can't find much on him in TROVE. Even less for Victoria.

I can't see a burial record for Ann(e) 1856/1857 in Dublin.

I can't see a burial record for Ann(e) 1856/1857 in Dublin.

This was the closest I could see, too early though..

I can't see a burial record for Ann(e) 1856/1857 in Dublin.

Ann could have died in Q4 1855, given Victoria's arrival Jan 1856

 

[DaveHam9]

Yes, Q3 or Q4 1855 is possible but not Sep 1854.

Being Dublin and CofE or CofI not RC or Presbyterian I'm surprised the record can't be found.

Nothing in Roots Ireland either

 

[horse]

Nothing leaping out for Victoria and Emmaline/Emma births either

 

[DaveHam9]

I got this some time ago:

According to irishgenealogy.ie the children of John and Ann Flood were:

Francis Lewis Flood 1826
Amelia Flood 1828
John Goodisson Flood 1829
Elizabeth Sophia Flood 1832
Emma Flood 1836 (third daughter)(born 16th February 1836)
Victoria Flood 1837

Emma named a son William Francis Lewis.

Yep, they are there, at least we know they exist :biggrin:
