& John WORTHLEY 1926-2008

 

   
   
In 1960 the Worthleys moved to England at about the same time as Joan's cousin Don was transferred there for two years. They stayed briefly with the them whilst sorting out accommodation. As Don drove a large Chev station wagon he used to take everyone on picnics, the one on the left is the Worthleys on the left, another cousin Geneive Allen in the rear and the Badger family on the right, the lady in the bottom right hand corner was another relative "Cousin Jean". Badgers, Worthleys & Counsin Jaen made 13 in the car that day - who needs seat belts when you are packed in that tight.

I am writing to let you know that Mum, Joan Worthley, died peacefully in her sleep this morning at home (living with Jacqui and family). She was 87 years old and had a happy and fulfilling life, and was ready and longing to go to be with Jesus.

Peter James MELLOR

initial contact with jean in scotland.
Hi, Neil.
Thanks for getting back.
Sorry about the first of the two messages on genesreunited! Somehow, the message sent before I had typed it!
We were in touch a few years ago via the genesreunited site. My name is Jean Cunningham (nee McGurk). I really came across your website by chance and was looking for a way to contact you through the site but couldn't see how to do that so I thought as a last resort, I'd try through genes.
Yes, we definitely have a connection through the Beveridge line. Jane Gillies Beveridge's father Robert who was born 1825 in Whitburn Parish, Linlithgow, West Lothian was the brother of my great great grandfather Alexander Beveridge b1827.
There were several Beveridge brothers who went out to Australia in 1856 aboard the Ocean Chief because of the goldrush.Robert and Thomas were the two who remained there, the others returning to Scotland at varying times. My great great grandfather must have returned before 1867 as he married my g g grandmother in Stonehouse, Lanarkshire in that year. Brothers William and James must have returned at a later date as they both had children born in Australia in the late 1860's and 1870's. William's youngest child,Lily was born in Fauldhouse, West Lothian in 1879 so obviously, he must have returned sometime prior to her birth.
I have amassed quite a lot of data about the Beveridges, both in Australia and back in Scotland and would be happy to share this with you. I don't really add much to my genes tree anymore but mainly concentrate on my FTM program . If you are interested, I could email you some files.
I would love to know more about the Australian line of the Beveridges. I have just recently discovered a bit about when Jane G Beveridge died and have found some photos of her daughters via a contact through Ancestry. I also discovered through the Bright Cemetery Register that her father had died of influenza.
Your photos are really interesting. I have a cople of pictures of Alexander b1827 that I could email to you.
Well Neil, I'll close now but look forward to hearing further from you.
Kindest regards,
Jean
