Personal Notes:
MARTI{A COLBOURN 18t 12t 1841 - 9t3t 1923
Martha Colbourn, daughter of Daniel Colboum and his wife Elizabeth, emigrated
from Whatley in the County of Somerset, England, at the age of 18, arriving in
Moreton Bay on 71211859o n the ship "British Empire". Shet oo was employed at
Cressbrook Station, although the nature of her employment is not known.
Prior to her arrival, both her cousin, Samuel, and brother Daniel, were already in
Australia, in Ipswich. Later, Daniel bought land at Eprapah, which is now Victona
Point, Redland Bay. Colburn Avenue, the main thoroughfare to Victoria Point from
Redland Bay Road, is named after him.
Augustus Himstedt (the Hunstedt had been alteredto Himstedt by this time) and
Martha Colbourn were married in Ipswich Queensland on IT/1211860. Brother
Daniel was the best man.
Augustusa ndM arthah ada t least1 1 children- their namesa ndb rief detailsw here
known are shown on the Family Unit Record attached. Unfo{hrnately, Augustus died
when only 55 due to any injury received when he was gored by a ram. The wound
apparently would not heal and turned into an absces

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.
