Personal Notes:

The Tumut and Adelong Times 30 Jun 1931
OBITUARY MRS. W. GEAGHAN. On Saturday at. 10 p.m. Gundagai lost another of those redoubtable pioneers whose years trials and privations in her early days hardened them for a life of longevity. The last to cross the Rubicon was Mrs Gearghan aged 87 years, relict of the late William Geaghan one of the early drivers of Cobb and Co's coaches, who predeceased her by about 6 years. A chill which turned to a more serious trouble to which she succumbed. She was a daughter of the late Thomas Roughan and was born in County Clare, Ireland, coming to Australia to join the service of the late Mr. and Mrs. James Lynch, parents of Mr. A. W. Lynch, of Bombowlee. She was married in Tummut 0n Sept. 4, 1868. The surviving family are Mr. John Geaghan (Mt. Adrah)., Miss M. Geaghan (Gundagai), Mrs. J. Whitticker (Wagga), Mrs. A. O'Connor (Sydney), and Mr. E. Geaghan (Bega), together with 24 grandchildren and 13 greatchildren . The interment took place in the Gundagai Cemetery yesterday.

This public tree has about 60,100 people. Every person in the tree is related by birth or marriage to at least one other person in the tree - no strays. The people in the tree come mainly from four projects.

My family tree. The original project begun about 1998. ID numbers less than about 6,000
Canberra and Queanbeyan Pioneers. The next 30,000 begun about 2004. Sourced almost entirely from HAGSOC's excellent 'Biographical Register of Canberra and Queanbeyan'. The project began when I decided to add siblings, spouses and parents for a relation with an entry in the Register. 12 years work.
Wagga Pioneers. I moved to Wagga and thought I would extend the Queanbeyan project by adding people from Wagga Wagga & District Family History Society's 'Pioneers of Wagga Wagga and District'. About 10,300 people added over about a year.
Tumut Valley Pioneers. During the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020, I decided to extend the above projects by adding pioneers of the Tumut Valley. Initial sources were Snowden's 'Pioneers of the Tumut Valley' and 'Relict of ... Lives of Pioneering Women of Tumut and District'. Excellent references published by Tumut Family History Group. I've also added material from newspapers of the time - especially, death records, obituaries and weddings from 'Tumut and Adelong Times'. This project is in its early stage and might take a few years. I plan to extend to the upper Monaro (Adaminaby, Kiandra, Cooma, Jindabyne).

I upload new information to this website about every 3 months. My motivation for these projects is to provide public information for people seeking to trace ancestors and what became of them. Much of the information I provide can be difficult to find.
If you find errors - anything incorrect (dates, places, wrong parents, wrong children), and you have evidence, I would love to fix them. Or, if you have information that would extend my projects, do not hestiate to contact me on the email link below. I do not publish information on living people - which means I'm not much interested in people born after about 1920, and I usually distrust material from before about 1770 without extremely good sources.
