Hi Kerrie,

I've a similar problem with a few of my distant cousins. The only place
where the father's name was mentioned for me was on the child's marriage
certificate...

Her mother's name was Rebecca Curtis who was widowed in 1849 when her husband Charles Curtis died. I am anxious to find who the father was. If someone in that area could help me I would be most appreciative and could offer help to records in Sydney that might be required.
