BrightWings on 2020-11-10 04:30:36Thank you for your usual excellent research. You saved me hours of work and a trip into the Archive.
Darrelle on 2022-09-19 18:01:12Hello, I've previously read your article about the Chatterton's in NZ, with great interest. My great grandmother is Rosanna Chatterton, (Also spelt as Rosannah), who arrived in NZ with her parents Arthur Chatterton and Mary Ann Paulucci and siblings on the Halcione at New Plymouth in 1875. I believe you have listed some of Rosanna's siblings in your article.
https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/newspapers/taranaki-herald/1875/09/04/2
Rosanna has married a gentleman with the surname of Hayes and later married a gentleman George Albert Sparks, this is who my grandmother, Elsie Constance Barnes's father is, as listed on her birth cert.
I cannot find any information on the gentleman Hayes, not even a Christian name, when I saw this article, I was hoping I could find this gentleman from the list of Hayes burials and their wife's, to no avail. Would you have any information or knowledge of this gentleman Hayes that Rosanna married??
Rosanna has moved to Australia at some stage, perhaps with this Hayes gentleman or even with G.A. Sparks. I'm not sure where her two marriages were conducted, I'm assuming her last marriage to her husband George Albert Sparks may have been in Australia, as my grandmother met her husband Walter James Barnes in Kalgoolie Western Australia. I'm assuming her parents had perhaps come across here to seek gold at Kalgoolie.
I'm of the belief that this line of Sparks has originally come to Australia from Canada. George's mother is from the Scottish, Hattie family lineage, Minnie Cameron married George Sparks. https://freepages.rootsweb.com/~guys/genealogy/HattieBook/hattiebook.html

ngairedith on 2022-09-20 09:55:15Hi Darrelle, thank you for the additional info. I had to make a new password to Ancestry but in now so will have a look. Thank you
I have a feeling Rosanna did not marry George Albert Sparks. Her daughter Elsie was born as Elsie Constance Sparks (Hayes) in 1890 and Rosanna married under her maiden name Chatterton 6 years later, in 1896, to Michael John Hayes. Unless you know more which could help me?
Rosanna Hayes
I have found a George Albert Sparks (1862-1940), but he is only a hunch at the moment, following on your saying he was (perhaps) from Canada
Darrelle on 2022-09-20 18:01:49Hello, Yes, I was advised you were able to view my tree by Ancestry via email, it's a work in process atm, I've even been making more changes and entries today, I'm not a paid-up member of Ancestry so much of my info is researching in other ways, some info may not be correct atm.
A few years back I applied for nanna's birth cert., due to the mystery of where both Hayes/Sparks fitted in, it stated George Albert Sparks as her father. Nanna was a very proper lady, my mum wasn't even sure on what the story was, she used to say there was some connection to Hayes, that seems all she knew, she would have told me if she knew otherwise. It appears to be one of those skeletons in the closet that many ppl find within their families, when ppl start researching their families.
Seems history repeated itself because both my brother and I were born in Cooma, NSW, out of wedlock, mum kept that secret for many years, although we seemed to have always known about our half-sisters through dad's marriage. Mum only told us of their marriage statis when we would have been in our early teens, back in the day, de facto relationships weren't the norm and frowned upon.
Our father was previously married when young, (Possibly a shot gun marriage), prior to going to war in the Navy, he left his wife and two daughters, had he lived another 7 months they could have legally married, back then you had to be separated for 7 years before you could divorce. When dad took up a position of Electrical Engineer Supervisor, with the Snowy Moutain Scheme, he and mum set off there, living at one of the work camps, with mum changing her name by deed poll to Judy Constance Martin, exchanging rings and vows beside a church, because no one knew them there, no one knew they weren't legally husband and wife.
My half niece, Ngares daughter, found my brother and I, on Mothers Day in 2017 via Facebook, helpful having unusual names. I was overjoyed, I had started to look for our half-sisters about 10 years earlier but life got in the way. They only found out about us and that their father had passed, when the oldest, Sandra, was about to marry, they had planned on inviting him to her wedding, their mother refused to discuss their father at all, she then went to court to make a claim for a war widows pension. The first photo they saw of him was one of only 2 photos I have, that I had posted on FB to show my nephew and his wife and kiddies, the week beforehand. Ironically, Ngare, (Pronounced like Narree with a silent G, supposedly the Kiwi way of spelling her name), lives in NZ as does her son Joel, in Aukland.
I've been trying to find a marriage between Sparks and Hayes or Chatterton, since your reply, either before or after her Hayes marriage. I realized nanna's birth date was out of the marriage date of Hayes marriage, I suspect you may be correct that there never was a marriage with Sparks, although I can't understand that Hayes wasn't just referred to as her stepfather or adopting father. No wonder mum was none the wiser and thought there was something a bit odd going on.
I'm wondering about a young single lady leaving NZ to go to Australia, I'm going to look to see if Rosanna travelled with a relative to go there.
You're obviously far better in researching than I am, I'm just a novice, researching in fits and starts. It looks like you may have found George Albert Sparks grave/funeral notice, I hadn't banked on him going back to Canada, then again, maybe Rosanna had gone to Canada??
Reading the funeral notice, if this is the George Albert Sparks, it appears we may have gained a few more rellies, Mrs A. J. Russell, Nova Scotia, Mrs C.C. Wilson, Vancouver, Mrs W.W. Lyon and Mr(s) F. C. McGee, San Fransisco, 16 of their children and three grandchildren, obviously a heap more family by now.
I'm wondering if Rosanna may have had some sort of connection to Sparks through her Great grandmother -
Lydia Paulucci nee Rowbotham
B:12 Jun 1761 St Margarets, Leicester, Leicestershire, England
D:14 Feb 1812 (St Mary's) Newark upon Trent, Nottinghamshire
Two of her sons, (Rosanna's great uncles), ended up in Canada, James Paulucci and William Palucci, although they're a lot older than G. A. Sparks, their families may have known the Sparks/Cameron families while in Canada, just a theory that may be the case.
I know Elsie took her eldest daughter, Audrey, over to NZ, I think for her 21st and met the rellies over there, I'm in touch with two sisters who are from the Chatterton line on their mothers side, I've been messaging one of them, Noelene Portway nee Edwards, her sister Melva isn't on messenger, Noelene is passing on the info I've been finding and now the info you've supplied.
Sorry I haven't been of much help in uncovering much more info on the Chatterton's or Hayes, it's not from the want of trying though. Are you related to the Chatterton's and/or Hayes??
Cheers,
Darrelle :)
Darrelle on 2022-09-21 05:33:27Came across this wedding that may interest you, the wedding of the eldest son of Charles
Augustus Hayes, of Wellington (N.Z.)
https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/157819440?searchTerm=Michael%20John%20Hayes
Darrelle on 2022-09-21 14:52:54This article is interesting it mentions a Michael Hayes, a tailor, as a witness in this case in Kalgoolie, dated 6th Oct 1898.
https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/203518840?searchTerm=Michael%20%2B%20John%20%2B%20Hayes#
The reason this piqued my interest is because Rosanna used to sew, taught my mum to sew, I still have her old, working, Singer treadle sewing machine.
This is 2 yrs after Michael and Rosanna's marriage in 1896, could Michael Hayes have taken his wife, Rosanna, to Kalgoolie, for work as a tailor?? The fact that Rosanna's daughter, Elsie, met her future husband in Kalgoolie, their first daughter, Audrey, was born in 1912, you'd assume they met prior to this date.
The impression I gleaned from the story mum would tell, of how Elsie met Wally Barnes in Kalgoolie, was that Elsie was well known amongst her circle of friends, implying an extended time living there.
Supposedly, she was more than a bit of a flirt, a very handsome, very shy, travelling salesman had come into town, (I have copies of letters Wally wrote to his mother. My cousin, Florence Barnes's grand daughter, Lynette, gave them to me on a USB stick).
Elsie's girlfriends gave Elsie a dare, to see if she could snare this handsome chap, he would often cross the street, rather than pass these young ladies. Needless to say, she was successful in her quest.
On a side note, Rosanna was a lovely gentle soul, far removed from her, 'hard as nails', daughter, Elsie. Mum was on the receiving end of many a razor strop, welded by Elsie and then locked in the bathroom. Mum had a deep love for her dear, gentle, loving father, Walter. Mum also told of how she often used to sit with Rosanna and stroke her lovely soft hands.
Cheers,
Darrelle :)
