Garbutt
I am trying to trace my family history and I have reached 1853
when my Grandfather was born in Leeds Yorkshire. I think he could
have been a soldier. He married Allice Gillum who was born in Pontypool
1863. They had a large family and my father was the youngest and
was born in Newport Wales in 1903. My grandfather was named John
Henry.
UPDATE: With a lot of help from some very special
people I have found that John Henry Garbutt m Alice Gillum in 1884
and by 1901 was a Sgt Major in the army living in Newport, South
Wales with Alice and 8 of his 9 children. His parents were William
and Elizabeth Garbutt. There were 4 Siblings; William born 1849
Leeds, Yorkshire. Thomas P born 1853 Durham, Darlington. Alice
born 1856 Middlesborough. Alfred E born Yorkshire 1861. William's
mother was Anne who lived in Northallington. I'd love to find some
cousins.
UPDATE: I think that Thomas Garbutt born 1773 could
be the father of William Garbutt who was born in 1797. Any help
is greatly appreciated.

We have been able to trace Robert Grice (born 1807) and Ann Grice (born
1804, don't know maiden name) who came from Langtoft in Yorkshire. We know
they left England late 1854 and arrived in Hobart Tasmania from Melbourne
on the "Ocean Chief" 25 March 1855. We believe that they left
England on the "James Baines" maiden voyage from Liverpool to
Melbourne, Australia. There are however no passenger lists available. They
travelled to Australia with their four children Laban (b 1836), Dickinson
(b 1839), Ellen (b 1843), and Elizabeth (birth unknown). The children were
baptised in Rillington. We know they were sponsored out to Australia by
a man named Esh Lovell. We cannot find any information on the family before
they left Yorkshire. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Grocock
I am researching my grandmother's family, the Grocock family of Colburn in
the Catterick area. Information I have so far is: William Grocock, a blacksmith,
married Sara and possibly had seven children. One was Charles, born 1827,
my great-grandfather. Charles Grocock, also a blacksmith, married Sarah
Robinson of Great Ouseburn an had possibly eight children Anne, Sarah,
Hannah, twins Charles and Mary, Emma (1865, my grandmother), William Robert
and Elizabeth. Emma emigrated to south Australia, date and ship unknown.
Any information, however small, would be greatly appreciated as I only
have names and dates.
