Since I've just joined this forum and my own family research is taking me in circles, I thought I'd run your person through Trove to see what comes up. Of course, mostly it's all about Francis Patrick Slavin the boxer…"

Slavin family in Australia - HELP needed
Is there anyone doing researching on the Slavin family in Australia.I have very little details other than I have below: My ggrandfather was Francis Slavin who married Betsy England in Wellington NSW in 1875. (The wife's family ENGLAND is large and live at Neurea / Baker's Swamp, approx 12 miles out of Wellington on the Molong Road) Their marriage certificate states Francis' age as 28 and his parents as Edward Slavin and Maria Callaghan, it states at he was born in Melbourne Vic. I have no luck with this guy. I have no record of birth, no record of death. I have checked with funeral directors records through historical society without success. He is not buried in Wellington, even though his wife was. Betsy and Francis' last child was born in Wellington area in 1890. Their children were Edward, John, Arthur (grandfather), Theresa, or Thurza and Emily (1890). I am waiting for birth certificate of Arthur...i must say, eagerly. It has been strange that Francis has never been talked…See More

MY ORIGINS - I Must Have One - but WHAT is it?
Posted on January 19, 2012 at 4:00pm 0 Comments 0 Likes
The quest for family members of the past is an interesting venture. We live our day to day lives not considering many others outside of our nuclear family unit until one day an event explodes onto the scene, like a parent or grandparent death, to remind us that we too are not going to live forever.
This awakening for me occurred when one day I suddenly realised my grandmother was getting older, before my every eyes, and I did not know even where she had come from. She could not have…
