Personal Notes:
CHARLES BARNARD, brother of George William

Charles arrived with his wife in Van Diemen’s Land from England by the brig ‘Caledonia’ on November 9th 1822, bringing with him a letter of recommendation, as an intending settler, from the Colonial Office and dated 3rd October 1821. He received a grant of 1,000 acres in 1823 on the River Tamar which he called Rougemont, later known as Red Hill. He received the Title Deed for the property in 1826.

By a correspondence file in the Chief Secretary’s Department, he seems to have been impatient at the delay which occurred in procuring convict labour for the development of his land, doubtless due to the fact that the supply was small and public buildings, previously erected, were being enlarged and rebuilt and few could be spared for the country districts.

For this or some other reason, he decided to return to England, leaving his brother as agent for his land. He sailed from Hobart Town on 23rd September, 1827 for England per S. ‘Admiral Cockburn’ accompanied by his wife.

Charles sold his land grant to his brother George probably on his departure. An advertisement in the Hobart Town Courier of 17th June offers for sale 1050 acres ‘a grant of land to Charles Barnard, now owned by G.W. Barnard’ in the same county as Red Hill, now known as Wareham.
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.
  1. My family tree. The original project begun about 1998. ID numbers less than about 6,000
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
