St. Brigid's Church. Quirindi, was the scene of a quiet wedding on 22nd Nov, when Lillian Joyce, eldest daughter of Mr and Mrs W. E. Baker, Spring Vale, Wallabadah, was married to James S. Brennan, only son of Mrs Brennan of Eurobin, Tumut. Rev. Father T. Harrington, assisted by Rev. J. Harrington, performed the ceremony, after which a nuptial mass was celebrated. The bride, gowned in white cashmere de soie braided and beaded with court train of white cashmere de soie, lined with shell pink georgette, finished with pearl horseshoes, georgette, rosebuds and orange blossoms and tulle veil, the latter being lent by Mrs Sturgeon, Monaro. The bride entered the church on the arm of her father, to the strains of Wagner's bridal chorus. She carried a bouquet of white orchids and carnations, and a gold mounted prayer book, and wore a gold wristlet watch, the gifts of the bride groom. The bride's gift to the bridegroom was a pair of gold sleeve links. Miss Vera Baker (bride's sister) was in attendance. She wore an embroidered saxe kobe frock, her black hat being relieved with handmade flowers of saxe shade. She wore a wristlet watch, and carried a bouquet of pink sweet peas and carnations, the gift of the bridegroom. Little Jeanne and Enid Baker (nieces of the bride), dressed in white organdi, with torchon lace and organdi hats to match, acted as train-bearers. Mr. Clem Kenny, of Lewisham, was best man. Miss Clarrie Baker sang Ave Marie (Elkins) and the Song of Thanksgiving. As the bridal party left the church the Wedding March was played. After the ceremony a reception was held at the residence of Mr. and Mrs P. J. Scanlon, uncle and aunt of the bride, where Mrs Baker. wearing black crepe de chine, embroidered in royal blue and vieux rose and black hat, received the guests. Mrs Brennan wore a costume of black taffeta, with touches of cream. Her hat was of black. The usual toasts were honored. Later Mr and Mrs J. S. Brennan left for Sydney to honeymoon. The bride travelled in a mastic cashmere de soie, with handwork in self tones, and hat to match. The future residence will be Eurobin, Tumut.

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.
