> Hi,
> I am trying to trace the FOSTER family of Young, NSW.
> My grandfather John (1879) was the son of John & Isabella Foster. They were
> cousins as both their fathers list the same parents on their death
certificates.
> John (ggrandfather- 1847) came out from Ashton, England in 1864 and was the
son
> of Robert & Margaret Foster. I cannot find Johns'death on the BDM discs. On
> Robert's death certificate (1899) it lists another son Thomas of 20 Lincoln
> Street, Sydney and a daughter Mary.
>
> Isabella Foster (1860) was the daughter of John & Martha Foster who arrived in
> Australia from England in 1862. She re-married in 1886 to William SANDERS and
> they had 8 children.She died in Young in 1908.
> John & Marthas' children were: Mary Ann; Mark; Isabella; William; John Thomas;
> Martha. John Thomas & Martha married into the DEBNAM family.
> I am also trying to trace an Edward Thomas Foster born about 1880 (possibly a
> brother to my grandfather) who married an Ethel May Blanch of Swan Bay on
> 10/6/1907.
> If anyone has any information I would be grateful.
