Born ‎6 Mar 1873 Dalby, Queensland, Australia.

Thank you for your email. Attached are copies of hand drawn family trees as well as a birth certificate for Mary Ellen. We believe her to be the illegitimate daughter of Mary Ann Donovan, and that she adopted the Edwards name when Patrick and Mary Ann married. She may have been adopted by Patrick at some stage but we haven't been able to find any paperwork or information to confirm that theory.
I transcribed the information wrongly, Evelyn was born on the 2 August 1892 in Sandgate, Queensland and died 30 Mar 1976, place unknown at this time.

Hi Colin

It was great to hear from you. OOPS you are a living descendant of Frederick & Bridget Rashleigh (nee Edwards)!!!!
I enjoyed your site very much and the photos. I didn't know anything on Bridget's line until I found a site by Chris Balston at xxxxxxxxx but was unable to contact him. I than found your site. So unfortunately, I don't have anything to add to your line.

Are you interested in going back on the Edwards and Dowd line. Bridget Angela Edwards was the daughter of Patrick Edwards born 1837, Parramatta, NSW died 1 July 1893 Dalby, Qld. His parents are given as Patrick Edwards & Mary Pender. After having his family he married Bridget Dowd b.1836 Loughrea, Galway, Ireland. She died 15 November 1917. Her parents were John Dowd and Ellen Rowan. Bridget Dowd had married previously to Michael Gill 1851 Ipswich, Queensland and had children.

I am a descendant of Patrick James Edwards B.1863 and am in contact with descendants of Ellen Mary Wilson (nee Edwards)b1871. They are siblings of your great grandmother, Bridget Angela Edwards.

I have only found out in the last couple of days from Fiona Connor who is married to a descendant of Ellen Mary that Bridget Dowd was an Irish Famine Orphan who came on the ship "Thomas Arbuthnot" and arrived in Sydney on 3 February 1850 at age 15.

I can send you a PDF file of my research on Bridget Dowd and her descendants. I did my initial research many years ago and have only took up the hunt on this line again last week, but with wonderful success, thanks to your information on the internet and getting back in contact with Ellen Mary's line.

My only request if you want the PDF file is that you do not put the details of "living" descendants on the internet from our branches.
I am happy however to give you that information for your personal research.

Once again, wonderful to make contact and hope to hear from you further.

Kind regards

Sources for person: I am one of only two grandchildren of gertrude jane trezona. I was recently given photo albums supposedly of hers. This has sparked my interest. Having found your site I am really thrilled to marry up some of the info in the books. All I knew of \'grandma trezona\'was that she was from a large family in the Dalby area. Grandma Trezona was married to William joseph Roy Trezona and they had one girl child only, my mum Daphne Bebe trezona. My mum married George Herbert William Jewell. They had two girls myself Cecilia and Pam six years later. My sister and I both have grandchildren. Would love to hear from you. Celia Ayres ‎23 Nov 2011, Gertrude Jane RASHLEIGH ‎2 Jul 2007
