The Parsons Family of Australia
The Parsons Family of AustraliaUpdated November 21, 2011 | [email protected] |
Researching families of Rupert Parsons and Florence Henrietta Morgan. Ruperts family had a family bible which started me on this quest. The first entries were dated 1835 when Thomas John Parsons from Aylesbury, Bucks. married Hannah Nelson from Steeple Aston Oxfordshire. One of their sons Thomas Nelson Parsons migrated to Australia when he was 16 and married Isabella Whittle in 1870. Isabella's father William Whittle was convicted of illegally bringing spirits into England and was sentenced to death, this was later commuted to 10 years in NSW. He received his Ticket of Leave Passport after working in the Sydney Markets and moved to Wellington NSW.Its enjoyable searching for ancestors. Any information is welcome. |
