Thank you MarieCeleste

Very Helpful

Sorry
I have just marked as answered but is there an age for Edward

Bernie, no there was no age shown. If you want any further look ups done then just go to the top of your thread and there is a purple button that says something like "mark this as unanswered" - that will remove the green tick.

Just add any further requests you may have below.

Thanks again

Can I please have a look
up for Australian marriages for Edward Draper.

Married in Forbes NSW 1867.

Thanks
Bernie

** If you can tell us anything more about "your" Edward Draper then we can see what records we can find?

Do you know where and when he was born, who his parents were etc?

Had a request on my local web site eatonbray.com.


I'm looking for the birth of Edward DRAPER whose parents may have been George and Marion. Edward was in Australia before 1867 as he married in Forbes, NSW, Australia in 1867. Died in 1907.

Would he be the son of George and Marian DRAPER who in 1881 (census) were living in Buxton Road Luton, Bedfordshire with children George, Charles, Arthur, Maria and William. All in straw hat making, except William who was a scholar?

Marion in Luton is Maria
Have found the marriage for George & Maria nee Dickens 1846 Luton Beds and gone through census but no Edward.
Have searched free BMD for an Edward Dickens in case he was a surprise for Maria but still nothing.

Thats all I have at the moment.

Posting that 1881 for reference:

DRAPER, George Head Married M 67 1814 Plait Dyer Luton Bedfordshire
DRAPER, Marian Wife Married F 58 1823 Sewer (Straw Hat) Luton Bedfordshire
DRAPER, George Son Single M 23 1858 Blocker (Straw Hat) Luton Bedfordshire
DRAPER, Charles Son Single M 21 1860 Dyer (Straw Hat) Luton Bedfordshire
DRAPER, Arthur Son Single M 18 1863 Blocker (Straw Hat)) Luton Bedfordshire
DRAPER, Maria Daughter Single F 19 1862 Sewer (Straw Hat)) Luton Bedfordshire
DRAPER, William Son Single M 12 1869 Scholar Luton Bedfordshire
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Registration District: Luton
Civil Parish: Luton

Address: 9, Buxton Road, Luton County: Bedfordshire

No Edward with them in 1861:

DRAPER, George Head Married M 37 1824 Plate Dyer Luton Bedfordshire
DRAPER, Marya Wife Married F 36 1825 Dyers Wife Luton Bedfordshire
DRAPER, Robert Son M 9 1852 Scholar Luton Bedfordshire
DRAPER, Alfred Son M 7 1854 Scholar Luton Bedfordshire
DRAPER, George Son M 4 1857 Luton Bedfordshire
DRAPER, Charles Son M 2 1859 Luton Bedfordshire
DRAPER, Maria Daughter F 0 (2M) 1861 Luton Bedfordshire
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Registration District: Luton
Civil Parish: Luton

Address: Farley Road, Luton County: Bedfordshire

That's the family

Living in 1851 with Maria parents

Might be him on 1891 census, given location of death:

1891 New South Wales, Australia Census

Name: Edward Draper
Locality: Parkes
Sub-District: H
County: Ashburnham
District: Forbes

It doesn't give any info like our census regarding residents, ages or occupations. It just says there were 4 males and 5 females in the household.

Love the name of the street - "No Mistake" !!

OZ census looks a good bet.
The only way to get close to his birth is to find his age.
Does census give it

Thank you

Bernie

Again, no details on 1901:

1901 New South Wales, Australia Census

Name: E Draper
Locality: Deep Lead, Lead's Gully
Sub-District: J
County: Ashburnham
District: Forbes

Now it's 5 males and 4 females

Bernie - keep bumping this thread up as there are some Oz researchers who have access to more records than I do.

Meanwhile, possible children:

Thank you


Have changed heading to

Look ups in OZ

I can see George and Maria on the 1851 with her parents, but they don't appear to have any children.

If they had Edward after that, then where was he in 1861?

Seems a long time in the 1800s to be married with no children.
Maybe Edward if we have the right family is with an aunt or uncle.

Still no luck
