Personal Notes:
Headstone reads
"In Memory of Matthew Marsh B.D. Born October 25th 1769 Died July 30 1840
He was many years Canon Residentiary and Subdean of this Cathedral and Chancellor of the Diocese.
Deeply learned, he devoted the energies of an acute, well-stoed and powerful mind to the advancement of Christian truth.
Of the blessed doctorines of teh Gospel, he was to the last a most zealous and successful assertor; performing his duties in this Cathedral to within a few hours of his death.
Humble and unostentatious, he failed not to exemplify in private the fruits of thise doctorines which he publicly taught for upwards of forty years.
Charitable in deed, in word, in thought, he viewed with pity the failings of others, and remembering the joy which is in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, his chief delight was to bring back the wanderer to the paths of life & hope of salvation.
To one most constant in his friendship, and in his dealings with all men most faithful and true:- To one whose love and devotion to themselves they can never sufficiently acknowledge, his widow & children have placed this testimonial of affection and regret.
Sorrowing, yet not without hope."

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.
