Find Ancestors

I have a George Worledge born abt 1810 Ipswich St Clement. He was a mariner & married Eliza Bacon 1831 Ipswich.
I suspect he may be a brother of John Worledge that you are looking for.
I have never found any info about George & suspect that the whole family may have been mariners which would account for them not being on the censuses.
George´s wife Eliza stayed in the Ipswich area until her death & is on the 1841 census with her children, living with her father & brother, who are also mariners.
Charles Worledge may be another brother of your John. He & his wife Rebecca had numerous children, also in Ipswich.
Not much help I know, but may give you a lead.

KOOLUNGA.
October 12.-Yesterday Mr. and Mrs. William Walladge, very old and highly respected residents of this district, celebrated their golden wedding at a dinner in the institute, at which about 50 of their relatives were present. Mr. and Mrs. Walladge were the recipients of many good wishes and hearty congratulations. They received a number of very handsome presents, those from their family consisting of a verandah seat and an easy chair. Mrs. Walladge arrived in South Australia in 1840, and Mr. Walladge arrived in 1851. They have resided in this district for over twenty-eight years. The surviving sons and daughters are Messrs. Daniel, Samuel, and William Walladge, Mrs. H. Clark and Mrs. E. J. Butler, of Port Pirie; Mr. Charles Wal- ladge, of Cradock; Mrs. F. T. Pedler, of Blyth; Messrs. John, Henry, George, and Ernest Walladge. and Mrs. James See, of Koolunga.-The Presbyterian Sunday-school picnic was held on Wednesday in Mr. T. Freeman's paddocks. The day being pleasant a large number of children, with their teachers, parents, and friends, attended. Unfortunately before the close of the day a few sharp showers of rain fell, and made the pleasure-seekers hasten homewards.

I guess he may not have been born in Suffolk, just sailed from there?


Do you know his occupation?

I am so grateful for all your help.

I will keep looking, but it sounds like I might have a bit of trouble.

Many Thanks again.

1851 census taken 30th March 1851
so maybe William is listed if he only landed in Australia in July 1851

I don't actually have the birth certificates of the children, but I know the names and birth dates of all of them.

The Birth Certificates will show the parents names, their names obviously and the date of birth and where born. I think that's all.

From a tree at Ancestry........dont know how good this info is but they seem to have an exact birth for William

Just trying to look at spellings and birth names for the children

Thanks MC - that rules him out then.

Sorry, one of the posts here listed a John William Walladge.

William's birth is circa 1833.

He married Mary Evans here in South Australia in 1855.

We know nothing about his family other than the John on his death certificate listed as his father. I do not know if he had siblings. There were no other Worledges/Walladges on the passenger list.

Mike, that William in 1841 appears to be the son of a Charles and Rebecca ....

HIs death and marriage show him as just William

Where have you got John William from?


Do you know if he married or had siblings?

HIS DEATH CERTIFICATE LISTS HIS FATHER AS JOHN
AND HIS BIRTH IS ABOUT 1833. ...

I assume you mean William's birth is c 1833 not John's ?



Is this him ?

Name: William Worledge
Event: Census
Event Date: 1841
Gender: Male
Age: 7
Birthplace: Suffolk
Registration District: Ipswich
Sub-district: St Clement
Civil Parish: St Clement
County: Suffolk


Hopefully someone can find who else was in the household in 1841

William died in 1909 at Koolunga, South Australia.

Should I assume that his name was really John William Walladge? Or should I not assume anything?

Many thanks for everyone's prompt replies! Amazing!
