Another problem!!

Sarah was living in Barn Street in 1861 and William was living in Ingleby Street. Can anyone tell me at what church they could have married at?

Could it have been at the Zion Chapel Newhall Street that William attended or would it have been in Sarah's parish?

Although Sarah was born in Ireland I am sure she wasn't Catholic because she married a Baptist and I think the Catholic Church would have frowned on such a union

Is there any other way to find out without buying a certificate?

Thank you all for your help :love:

Re: William WHALE

Hi
I have been tracing my Whale family tree and I believe that the William Whale that you refer to may be the son of my gt gt gt gt gt Grandfather Henry Whale born 1818 who was married to Harriet and had children - Henry, William, Catherine and Edwin lived in Ingleby Street. I saw some research into the same William Whale on https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,269762.0.html apparently William attended the Zion Church in Birmingham before his departure to Australia.

Re: William WHALE

The immigration for your family appear to be on the Unassisted list into Victoria - the Vic files include anyone who stopped by even if they were going elsewhere - so often folks for other states are on their lists

Re: William WHALE

for Sarah Whale

1903 Brisbane North

426 upper Edwar Street Domestic duties
also registered at same address
was Jessie Josephine Whale Domestic duties

1913 Toowong
McIllwarith Street, Auchenflower Domestic duties

1919 and 1925
Wingara Street, Yeeroongpilly Home Duties

So it would appear that Sarah lived by herself for a number of years

Re: William WHALE

Thank you for your posting.

Again thank you for your time

Your post is 2010. My father was Ronald Henry Whale, son of Rev. William Whale who was the son of the Rev. William Whale. My father had abrother William Latchford Whale who was shot down over Germany during WW2. He was based with the RAF and had an affair with the base Commander (?) and she had a son Bill Fisher of whom we knew nothing until about 12 years ago. W L Whale had 2 sons back here in Australia ... ironically another Bill and Franklin. I have the Whale Family Bible going right back prior to the Rev William migrating to Australia from Birmingham. I also have a Thesis written by an Honours Uni student called "William Whale: The Making of a Colonial Baptist Preacher 1842-1903" by Patrick John O'Leary. He lead an amazing life in Colonial Australia. The name Latchford pops up here and there. Any questions? Happy to help albeit 13 years later.
