Turner's, Webb Wagg's and Trickett's - Part 2

Thank you to Maureen, my 3rd cousin 1 x removed, for her latest discovery which again shows the family links between the Webb Wagg's and Trickett's.  We first looked at this in a blog back in early May.  

Maureen is the granddaughter of Edward George Trickett and Sabina (Bina) McManus.  You may recall that Edward's mother, Jane Trickett (nee Hand) and Sarah Wagg (nee Hand) were sisters.  Here's a chart that shows all the Wagg (or Webb or Webb-Wagg) and Trickett cousins.  

Wagg and Trickett cousins
Edward George Trickett was born on 12 September 1867 at "Kerosine Works, Oyster Bay, North Sydney".  Edward's birthplace is now very familiar from looking at the births of William and Sarah Wagg's children.  

On 13 January 1906, Edward married Sabina (Bina) McManus at Christ Church North Sydney.  Edward was a 39 year old carpenter and Sabina was a 39 year old spinster at the time of the marriage.  Sabina was born in 1867 to Bernard (Barney) McManus and Ellen Fahey.  Her birth was registered at St Leonards.  

The witnesses at Edward and Sabina's wedding were Christopher Henry (Chris) Webb and Ellen Eliza (Nellie) Webb (nee Rogers).  Edward and Chris were cousins and had their sailing in common as well!  Here's the marriage registration with four precious signatures!

Edward and Sabina went on to have two children - John later in 1906 and Edward Bede in 1908.  Edward died on 14 May 1940 at his home at 4 Eden Street, Crows Nest.  Sabina died on 26 March 1949 at the Mater Hospital, Crows Nest.

Welcome aboard the Australian!

Welcome aboard the Australian. Yes, that's the name of the boat in the photo. Are you related to the people on the boat? The chap on the left is the patriarch of our family, William Webb Wagg (abt 1826 to 8 Jan 1905). Known as Bill Webb, "old Billy Webb" or Grandpa Webb to his grandchildren, he was 76 when this photo was taken.  On the boat are his four sons who survived to adulthood - left to right - Charles "Charlie", Albert Hayden "Hayden", William John "Bill" and Christopher Henry "Chris".  Four of Grandpa Webb's grandchildren are in the photo - William (son of William John) on the boat and left to right on the pier are Hayden Albert (son of Albert Hayden), Claude William (son of Charles) and Mabel Zoe Glencora "May" (daughter of Christopher Henry).   The fellow on the pier is Halway Harry Anderson - known to all as Harry Anderson. Charles and Albert Hayden married two sisters, Amy and Josephine Clancy. Harry mar

Reuniting the families of James Judkins Gillett (1848 to 1925)

Image
James Judkins Gillett (JJG) married my great-grandaunt, Sarah Jane Webb Wagg, on 29 October 1883 at St Thomas Church of England, North Sydney.  Here's a record of their marriage- You can read the earlier blog on JJG and Sarah  HERE.   That was in July 2017 when my interest in family history was growing and I recorded- "James Judkins was born in about January 1848 in Islington, England.  He was the second child and older son of the six children of James Elvin Gillett and Frances Jane Judkins." James Judkins and his brother, Charles Elvin Gillett (abt 1857 to 11 June 1937), came to NSW in the early 1880s.  It's probable that Charles Elvin arrived in early 1883 as an assisted immigrant but it's not clear if James Judkins travelled with him.  It seems that the rest of the family remained in England.  In 1886, Charles Elvin married Alice Louisa Bowling (1859 to 1929) in Glebe and settled in Auburn." I mainly research my direct family line,

21 September 2018 - The centenary of the death of Sarah Webb Wagg (nee Turner)

Image
Today marks 100 years since our many times great-grandmother and great-aunt, Sarah, died at the home of her son, William - 247 West Street Cammeray. Sarah was born on 21 October 1832 in Sydney - the daughter of George Turner (a carpenter from York, England) and Mary Hand (a convict from Atholone, Ireland).  George and May had another daughter, Jane, but it's possible that there were more children - the search continues! You can read last year's post about Sarah here. Sarah married William Wagg (a seaman and convict from Norfolk, England) on 18 August 1853 at St James Church of England in Sydney.  They settled on the lower North Shore of Sydney and raised their large family. Here's the last photo that we have of Sarah with her extended family.  She's clearly visible as are some of her sons and their wives.  I doubt we'll ever identify everyone or know the reason for the gathering. Listening to my great-grandmother, Josephine Webb-Wagg (nee Clancy)
