Something on the Ross Goldfields

http://www.galenfrysinger.com/nz_south_ ... fields.htm

Grrrrrr sorry Wilson, no luck so far with NZ electoral rolls - tried births but NZ site does not always have mother or father listed - only one I could even think may be a possibility is one in 1870 - a Charles Edward 1870/5541 but no idea where the birth is registered.
A flight of fancy - if Edward went after gold in NZ -why did he turn up in Naracoorte to marry Elizabeth?????? is there a link somewhere with the Victorian Goldfields? Where did he come from - butter about the surname being Jones lol What was his age at death?

Ok i will start repying on trying to find thread,.....sorry, guess it should have been here from the start, Dizz and i got carried away


Now.....where am i up to?


On Edward Jones's death cert
Cause of death...congestion of lungs and Nephritis aged 81


At the bottom it has a box for Relationships
in this is says
Aged of deceased 33

place of marriage...blah blah


spouse Elizabeth Maynard

Now here is the question?

Does that age of deceased relate to Elizabeth?
I think it does, and that she died when she was 33......this is the age of her
youngest child,.......so maybe died in childbirth. Anyway, i have found a
death for an Elizabeth Jones in 1874,( the year he daughter was born, and the
year Elizabeth would have been 33)

I have applied for that death cert to see if it is her. So fingers crossed i am on a winner there.

Wilson, looks like it couldbe Elizabeth - did it say which area it was? Looking forward to the certificte coming

No JA, just a NZ death for that year.......bit of a stab in the dark, but looks hopeful to me

SORRY THAT WAS ME CONFUSING THINGS

This is a site Ihave just found..dont know if it is any good but worth a try for those searching New Zealsnd rellies..
