Hi list
marg wanted to know what happened to the children of Thomas Grant and Ellen Jennings

Their eldest daughter Mary married John Orpen at east Gosford in 1845 he was the son of convict Edward Orpen and Maria Crumpe
John Grant married Bridget McDonald in 1845 she was the daughter of Lawrence McDonald & Celia Waters
Bridget Grant married Patrick Clarke in 1852 he was the son of Convicts Matthew Clarke & Jane Kennedy
Thomas Grant married Ellen Cadby in 1866 she was the daughter of James Cadby and Sarah Toole
Alice Grant married Alexander Walls son of Robert Walls and Margaret Davidson
Edward Grant married Mary Jane Brennan daughter of John Brennan & Mary Robinson (alias Peacock)
Ellen grant married James Henderson son of Archibald Henderson and Agnes Allen
Margaret Grant married Gerald Fitzpatrick son of Gerald Fitzpatrick and Mary Magner
Louisa Grant married Louis Lucas son on William Lucas and Clarissa Kendwick/Kendall
Sarah Grant married Silas Pearson Taylor son of Edward Taylor and Jane Pearson
Sophia Grant married William Norman son of William Norman & Catherine Riley.
By about 1880 all the families had moved either to the Balmain & Penrith area
or went north to the Richmond river area
Sophia & William Norman were at Singleton where Sophia died in 1910
and Sarah Taylor died in childbirth in 1873
her death certificate says buried at Catholic burial ground Kincumber.
MY best guess is she is buried with her mother.

regards
Faye
