Henry Thomas b St Agnes 1843

Hello,

I am researching my family and have a problem with GT. Gt. Grandfather Henry Thomas. He was born in 1843 the son of William Thomas and Thomasin Nichols I believe. Certainly he married Ann Eudey in Redruth 1863 (5c 422) they left for Australia on the Golden City which left Plymouth on 17th October 1864 arriving in Queensland 3/01/1865 Passenger lists check out.

I have got the family of William and Thomasin (Henry' parents) which includes a Henry which I have assumed is mine but I cannot find total proof. There is some indications that henry could have been married prior to his marriage to Ann and that his first wife might have been an Eliza or Elizabeth and that she died earlier in the year i.e. 1863 that Henry and Ann got married. However Henry was born in 1843 travelled to Australia and died there in 1867, just 24 years old so he got a lot into his short life.

I wonder if there is any chance you have access to information on Henry? I believ his father William was the agent at Wheal Kitty mine.

many thanks

Looking for Eliza J Tippett of St Agnes, Cornwall England who died 1863

I am trying to trace details of an Eliza J Tippett who was apparently married to an ancestor of mine Henry (or Harry) Thomas. Henry Thomas was born in St Agnes in 1843 and married a Ann Eudey in Redruth, Cornwall in July of 1863. Apparently Henry was previously married to Eliza J Tippett who died earlier the same year 1863. There is a reference to a "Harry Thomass" that might be confusing the issue.

I have been unable to find any more information and would love to hear from anyone who can add to the story
