Hi
I’m trying to make sense of
the many different “Naas” variations that show up in my Oldfield family tree.
Joseph Matthew Oldfield
(Jnr) and Elizabeth Rawlings are my greatx2 grandparents and on their children’s
birth certs they are variously shown as living at:
·
Naas
·
Naas Valley Station
·
Naas Creek
Various other
Oldfields appear at:
·
Fairfield, Naas
·
Mistley
Cottage, Naas
·
Naas Homestead
·
Naas Cemetery
·
Naas School
·
Top Naas
Google searches reveal
little geography for this area … are their historical maps showing the various
sections of Naas?
I also have a Facebook
family group where I post BDM certs, photos
etc…. and encourage other
Oldfiel/Rawling
descendnats to do the same.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/OldfieldRawlingsFamilyGroup/
I’m happy to share any
documents and images you’d like and would also be grateful if you’d encourage
other Oldfield or Rawling
descendants to contact me at this address (perhaps a mention in your
newsletter?)
Thanks for any assistance
you can give
R!
Hi Roberta,
As you
have probably already determined Naas is the area just south of Canberra and was
probably a property name originally. I don’t have any information or maps
of the area but HAGSOC in Canberra would be a good place to check (https://familyhistoryact.org.au/).
Yes, we
would appreciate copies any images you can provide to add to the individual
records in our database.
I recommend
you also put your request for family contacts on our Facebook page which is
proving to be a very excellent vehicle for researchers to find other family
members.

Death.
- It is my sorrowful duty
to record the death of Mrs. John Leahy, which sad event occurred last Friday
evening in the Goulburn hospital, the cause of death being tubercular disease of
knee joint. The deceased lady had been ailing for over three months, and had
been in the hospital nearly three weeks when death occurred. No pains or expense
were spared and everything was done that was possible to spare her life, but of
no avail, and she passed peacefully away at 5 p.m., surrounded by relatives and
loving friends.
The deceased lady was a
resident of here for more than 42 years and was beloved by a large circle of
friends. She was ever ready to assist in any function of a religious or
charitable nature, and was ever a friend to those in sickness and will be sadly
missed not only from her own home but by all her acquaintances.
Mrs. Leahy was a native of
Yass, being the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Hassett, and was 60 years of age.
The funeral took place on Saturday evening, the body having arrived in
Bungendore by train that morning and been conveyed to the Catholic Church, and
the cortege was one of the largest I have seen attending any funeral here. The
remains were interred in the Catholic cemetery, the Rev. J. Fitzpatrick reading
the solemn funeral service both at the church and grave side.

Comments (Holzhauser,
Samuel Joseph b. 1882 Candelo, New South Wales d. 1948 Cobar, New South Wales):
Good afternoon,
I am the great grandaughter
of Samuel J Hall (Holzhauser). I am researching my family history and wanted to
know why there are no details about Samuel's marriage or children on this site
yet that information is listed for all his siblings? Could it be due to him
marrying an aboriginal woman? Did the family disown him & thats why he changed
his last name? My grandfather has passed away now but I know it would mean alot
to my father if Samuel's marriage to Kitty Keewong and 5 children were
acknowledged publicly. It is so sad that Samuel's final resting place is an
unmarked grave in Cobar. I live in Eden now & am trying to find out what
happened to my great grandfather. It's like they cut him out of the family tree
completely. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Tiona Hall
Hi
Tiona,
Samuel’s
family are not listed simply because we have never received any details about
his marriage or descendants. If you care to provide me with all the
information I will gladly add that branch to our records.

Mr Robert Lang, a well

afternoon at the age of 77 years. He had been in ill-health for some time and
was recently treated for heart trouble. Mr. Lang went to his sheep yards during
the afternoon in order to do light work and later he was found dead in the
yards. There were no marks on the body and in view of a doctor's statement, the
Coroner decided to dispense with an inquest. He was a son of the late Mr. and
Mrs. Charles Lang, who were pioneers of the Wombebyan Caves district.
Mr. Lang was twice married
and leaves a widow and seven children of his second marriage. One daughter is
married to Mr. Max White. Mr Lang carried on grazing near Curraweela for some
years and later acquired property in the Richlands closer settlement area.
Messrs. Charles Lang (Gunning) and Jed Lang (Oberon) are brothers. The interment
took place at the Anglican cemetery, Stonequarry. Prior to the funeral the body
was taken to the Anglican Church at Taralga where Rev. H.F.A. Champion
officiated and later read the burial service. There was a very large attendance
at the funeral.

Good Morning Ian,
I believe there is a
duplication of names with the Michael Richard Geraghty (MP11110) being the same
person as the Michael R Garretty (MP7885) who married Ethel Ruby West (I7901).
The daughter of this marriage is listed Thelma Ethel Geraghty (the surname
should be changed to GARRETTY as per NSW BDM). From the New South Wales Police
Gazette of 13 Aug 1919 (below) this led this morning to the identification of
second child of this marriage being Felix L GARRETTY born Cooma 1918 (BDM NSW

Description: THE LATE MR.
W. A. BRODRIBB.
We regret to have to
announce the death of Mr. William Adam Brodribb, one of the last of the old
colonists,,who link the present to the past of New South Wales. Mr. Brodribb was
a Londoner having been born in that city on May the 27th, 1809. He was therefore
77 years of age. He was the son of the late William. Adams Brodribb, an English
solicitor, who afterwards resided in Hobart, where he held the office of clerk
to the Judge Advocate, and subsequently became Under-Sheriff. Mr. Brodribb left
his fathers adopted home for New South Wales, where he entered upon
sheep-farming and also cattle-breeding, in each case with considerable success.
His first station was in the Maneroo district; and he after-wards acquired an
interest in a large, pastoral Holding near Goulburn and during his residence
there stocked a station on the Broker River with sheep, cattle, and horses, Mr.
Brodribb was one of a company formed for the exploration of Gippsland, who after
considerable hard-ship and almost when their minds were made up, to abandon the
enterprise discovered what is now known, as Port Albert. After varying fortune
in station property, in New South Wales. Mr. Brodribb in 1855 crossed the
Australian Alps with his herds, and settled on the Wanganella run, from, which,
however, he soon, afterwards sold out. He then went to Melbourne, where he was
elected a member of Parliament for Brighton; but about a year afterwards he
resigned, and went to England, and, after, two years' absence, returned and
formed several, stations in the Lachlan district. In 1874 be again visited
England, and whilst there did some useful work for the colony, aiding, in
bringing about reforms in the wool trade. He was elected a fellow, of the Royal
Geographical Society, and a Fellow of the Royal Colonial Institute. In 1876 he
returned again to the colony, and purchased, Buckhurst, where he resided up till
tho time of his death. In 1877 Mr. Brodribb was appointed a member of the New
South Wales Commission at the Paris International Exhibition and in 1879 a
member of the New South Wales International Exhibition, He was justice of the
peace - both of this colony and of Victoria. Mr, Brodribb was elected a member
of the Legislative Assembly of New South Wales on November 24, 1880, but
resigned that position in the following year, on the 29th December, upon which
day he was appointed to a seat in the Legislative Council. He did not, however,
take his place among tho members of that body till the 22nd of August following.
Of that Chamber, he. has remained a member ever since.
Mr. Brodribb went to
Melbourne about three weeks ago, and was taken rather unwell whilst there. He
was very anxious to return, and as soon as possible did so, reaching Sydney by
the express train on Saturday morning last. At first, after his return to Sydney
he appeared to be better in health, but on Sunday he was again taken ill, and
his illness terminated fatally at 5 o'clock yesterday morning.
