Find Ancestors

Hi everyone, Have more at long last about Willliam Reynolds NOT born Morven Tas but Somerset uk yes he was a convict. Traced him back to ship but to this date he hasn't died. He was born 1808 so as you can see loads of differnces. I think he might and say might have married in Longford to another lady before Elizabeth, then only death I can find is in Latrobe registered by step son. I haven't found all dates so that is my next job but does anyone think this is possible. Thanks all. Dianne

Thanks Elizabeth b 1841 Evandale so this might be christening and birth could be 1840 she married age 16 to William Roe Reynolds and had William Row Reynolds in 1858
Will look at the other Elizabeth Saunders in Hobart always worth looking to check.
Thanks Di

I would take a guess that this is Elizabeth?

Some of the info online has Elizabeth Saunders born in 1840. That can't be correct, not if this is one of her children

Unfortunately the cert doesn't name his father or other obvious birth family members.

Is this your page?

You *might* be able to access the baptisms on Pioneer Index from a link on this page

http://search.archives.tas.gov.au/default.aspx?detail=1&type=S&id=RGD32

It says you have to click through each page

EDIT - it's an alphabetical list. Find the R's and see what if anything is listed. There is a number next to the name which is presumably a reference to the image which you'd then have to have accessed.

Name: Reynolds, William Roe
Record Type: Marriages
Gender: Male
Age: 34
Spouse: Saunders, Elizabeth
Gender: Female
Age: 16
Date of marriage: 14 Jul 1856
Registered: Morven
Registration year: 1856

Registration of births, deaths and marriages commenced in 1839 in Tasmania, the first Australian colony to take over the function previously conducted by the Churches.

The Registry holds and can produce certificates for:

church records (burials, baptisms and marriages) from 1803 - 1839
birth, death and marriage registrations from 1839 to date

(the above from http://www.justice.tas.gov.au/bdm/family_history)

On that basis, you/we need to track down church baptism records

If available on line, have you tried the Tasmanian Pioneers Index? How about https://familysearch.org/
