Have found a Chales Maynard in the Electoral Rolls in Echuca-Yando a farmer..single.. the same place that a Brother Thomas was a farmer and died 6 years later in 1909 ..so this must be the son.. otherwise the father would be over 100...

SON WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE DIED ON SHIP
BUT I THINK IT WAS THE DAD WHO DIED

WELL DONE MARY

THANKS DIZZ AND MARY FOR CONTINUING TO HAVE A LOOK FOR THE EVER ILLUSIVE CHARLES MAYNARD.

JUST THOUGHT I WOULD TRY TO PUT ON A BIT MORE OF WHAT I HAVE, MAKES IT EASIER TO FOLLOW WHERE WE ARE WITH THE SEARCHING,......AND MORE INTERESTING FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE HAVING A READ


DIZZ CHARLES MAYNARD AND MARTHA NEE LEE HAD ELIZA WHO MARRIED HENRY DORRELL..........
AND ELIZABETH WHO MARRIED EDWARD JONES........NOT SURE WHY THEY HAD TWO DAUGHTERS WITH
SIMILAR NAMES, BUT I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO TRACE THEM BOTH VERY WELL AND AM CONFIDENT THAT THIS INFORMATION IS CORRECT. I HAVE SIGHTED THE BIRTH REGISTRATIONS IN SEVENOAKS KENT MYSELF. ALSO SONS WILLIAM, THOMAS AND CHARLES.....TWO OTHER DAUGHTERS ESTHER BORN 1847 DIED ? 1847 AND MARY ANN BORN 1840 BUT NOT FOUND ON THE 1841 CENSUS.THESE TWO DAUGHTERS I AM NOT ABSOLUTELY SURE OF WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM. BUT THEY DIDN'T COME TO AUSTRALIA!!!!!

SO AS I HAVE IT.... CHARLES, AND MARTHA, WITH CHILDREN WILLIAM, THOMAS, ELIZA, ELIZABETH AND YOUNG CHARLES BOARDED THE SHIP 'THE HELEN' ON THE 3RD OF JULY 1852 FROM GRAVES END KENT. AND ARRIVED 12 NOVEMBER 1852 INTO PORTLAND VICTORIA AUSTRALIA.
I HAVE ACCESSED THE MICROFICHE OF THE SHIPPING LOG WHICH ALL TIES IN OK. THE CHILD CHARLES IS WELL DOCUMENTED AS HAVING DIED OF SCARLETINA AGED 2 ON BOARD THE SHIP. THEN THE ARRIVALS LISTING MATCHES IN WITH THE DEPARTURE INFORMATION, AND THE SHIPPING LOG. .....ONLY THING IS ANCESTRY HAS A COUPLE OF THEM LISTED AS WAYNARD BUT I THINK THIS IS JUST A TRANSCRIPTION MISTAKE.

THEN THEY WALKED OVERLAND TO SOUTH AUSTRALIA....WHERE THEIR SPONSERS LIVED. ELIZA MARRIED HENRY DORRELL ON THE WAY......MUST HAVE BEEN A QUICK COURTSHIP?????


I HAVE THE INFORMATION ON HENRY DORRELL, AND FEEL HAPPY THAT IT FITS, HE MARRIED ELIZA AND THEY NAMED A CHILD CHARLES MAYNARD DORRELL. THAT DAUGHTER ENDED UP IN VICTORIA....TOWER HILL...LOTS OF CHILDREN.

ELIZABETH MAYNARD MARRIED EDWARD JONES IN THE HOUSE OF HENRY DORRELL AND ELIZA IN NARACOORTE SOUTH AUSTRALIA.....THIS IS THE COUPLE THAT SEEMS TO HAVE GONE TO NEW ZEALAND ABOUT 1862. THREE SONS AND ONE DAUGHTER ELIZA JONES MARRIED ERNEST CHING AND THEY NAMED THEIR FIRST SON JAMES MAYNARD GRAHAM CHING. SO AM HAPPY THAT I AM ON THE RIGHT TRACK WITH THEM BEING THE RIGHT COUPLE.


WILLIAM MAYNARD (SON OF CHARLES AND MARTHA) MARRIED MARGARET MCMILLIAN BOTH DIED IN NARACOORTE, 5 CHILDREN.

THOMAS MAYNARD....MY DIRECT ANCESTOR...MARRIED MARY PEDDER, MOVED TO VICTORIA, HAD 11 CHILDREN, ONE NAMED CHARLES, WHO IS MY GREAT GRANDFATHER, HE DIED BOORT/YANDO.

MMMMMM WHAT ELSE.....I HAVE BEEN DIGGING AROUND LOOKING FOR CHARLES SENIOR FOR SO LONG I FORGET WHAT INFORMATION I HAVE ALREADY TORTURED YOU WITH

I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN FAIRLY SURE CHARLES ARRIVED SAFELY AND AT LEAST STARTED THE WALK TO SOUTH AUSTRALIA AS I COULDN'T SEE WHY THE SPONSERS WOULD TAKE ON THE WIFE AND CHILDREN WITHOUT THE WORKER THEY HAD PAID PASSAGE FOR. HOWEVER ON REFLECTION, WILLIAM WOULD HAVE BEEN ABOUT 15, THOMAS 13 AND THE YOUNGEST DAUGHTER 11 SO MAYBE THEY WERE OLD ENOUGH TO BE ACCEPTABLE AS WORKERS,

I DID DISCOVER THAT WILLIAM WORKED FOR THE SPONSER WILLIAM MCINTOSH ON HIS PROPERTY TALLAGIERA STATION NEAR EDENHOPE IN VICTORIA. SO MAYBE HE TOOK THE FATHER'S (CHARLES SENIOR) POSITION IF CHARLES DIED BEFORE GETTING THERE.

MY OTHER THEORY IS MAYBE CHARLES WENT TO NEW ZEALAND WHEN HIS DAUGHTER MOVED THERE, CHARLES SENIOR HAD A GRANDDAUGHTER .......ELIZA AND HENRY DORRELL'S DAUGHTER PHOEBE GO WITH HER HUSBAND ALEX GUNN TO NZ.....JUST A THOUGHT. PURELY SPECULATION COS I CAN'T FIND ANYTHING DEFINITE.

OK NOW ANY QUESTIONS LET ME KNOW IF YOU COME UP WITH ANY

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM...still looking,,,,
