| I am trying to find information of David's parents. Possisbly Thomas and Anne Davies nee Lewis. David was born about 1815 in Blaina/Blaenavon. Monmouthshire. Wales. Thomas was a miner. David and his wife Ann,(who he married 21.6.1840 in Llanover. Monmouth) with Ann and John migrated to Australia. Arriving in Adelaide in 1866 Was possibly a preacher. Went to Walleroo in South Australia, then in 1867 went to Ross Creek. Victoria. Was at one time a Mayor of Buningyong (Vic.) and a back bencher in Deakin Government.He married Sarah Phillips and had 5 sons and 1 daughter. (What happened to first wife Ann?) David died in Ballarat in June 1894. Believed to be buried in Old Cemetary Ballarat. Victoria. Australia.Does anyone have access to census 1861 or 71, that could check on ages of David or his children. Hoping someone may have further info. |
