- Reference = 2 (Name, Notes)
- Reference = 2 (Marriage)
- Notes: Between 1610 and 1628, William and Katheryne Chown had a daughter and six
sons. GEORGE the youngest, wed Helen, surname unknown. As far as can be
determined she and George had two sons, Edmond 27 Sep 1646 who wed Joan
EVELEIGH at Rockbeare on 31 Jan 1677 and CHARLES 21 Jan 1648 who married
twice.

His first marriage was brief, in 1677 producing one son, also named Charles then
on 09 ApI 1683 he wed Joan NORTHCOTT. They had six sons and seven daughters
between 1685 and 1708. It is not practical to list all these, their spouses and
offspring but just as a matter of interest, Robert Chown, the fourth child married
another Joan NORTHCOTE at Exeter St Paul in 1725. It is quite likely she was
connected to the well-known family from neighbouring Upton Pyne, one of whom
was Lord Northcote, Governor-General of Australia from 1904-1908.

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.
