| Dianne Margaret Brown 429 Forest Street Wendouree,Victoria 3355 03 53399467 | I am researching the Gracie's originating from Edinburgh, Scotland or at least we think so.I believe I am the G.G.G. Grandaughter of Richard Gracie and Elizabeth Denholm. Richard and Elizabeth married in Canongate Edinburgh on 9 March 1815. My G.G.Grandfather Henry Gracie, B. circa 1819 and his Wife Margaret (Nee Fletcher) born in Nairn, Scotland, 27 September 1819 and children Richard, B. 1839, Margaret, B. 1843, Elizabeth, B. 1848, Mary Ann, B. 1849, and Jane, B. 1851 emigrated to Australia leaving Southampton on 10 April 1853 on the ship Coromandle as free settlers, arriving in Tasmania, Australia on 18 July 1853. The family lived in Hobart, Tasmania for approximately 2 years before moving to Maryborough, Victoria, Australia. Henry was a minor for many years. He died on 11 April 1895 from old age and broncitus according to his death certificate. Margaret died in the Maryborough Hospital on 10 July 1897.Would be most grateful for any information on the family while still in the United Kingdom. |
