Personal Notes:
Written by Marie Elizabeth Simpson nee Sampson - Niece of Josephine Edith Chadwick

Josephine Edith Chadwick was the eldest child of Joseph Hunston and Edith Elizabeth Chadwick aka Ruff nee Belford. Josephine (known as Josie) attended Buranda State School and then went to the Brisbane State Commercial High School and completed her Junior Level. From there she went to an External Accountancy College (name unknown). She achieved the Associate of Accountants, Associate of Federal Institute of Accountants and passed all examinations prior to her turning twenty. Josephine had to wait until she achieved the age of twenty to be confirmed into the Accountants Institute.

Josephine worked for C.B. Bartstow, wholesalers of hardware. She then moved on and worked for the C.S.R. just before the Second World War for approximately two years.

Josephine was the first female assessor with the Tax Department at some time after the war. Josephine then worked for the Ann Street Presbyterian Church. She worked in general accounts until her retirement.

One of Josephine's interest was crotcheting. Her niece Marie remembers the many items she would make and Marie spent time learning to crotchet.

Josephine was a strict vegetarian which eventually weakened her heart.

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.
