I'm trying to track down Hugh Eccles born in the first half of the 1800's who married Elizabeth and had a son Frank Hugh Eccles who migrated to Australia, married Charlotte Stevens and died in 1890.

Hi Col.

This is a copy of a reply I made to one of your other posts...

Hugh Eccles was my great (x3) grandfather and I've managed to dig up a mountain of data (documents, photos) about him on many of my trips to London on business. Hugh was born ~1827 in Armagh, Ireland, married Elizabeth Saltmarsh and Frank was one of his 6 children.

Frank was born in Westminster, London on 15 June 1858 and died in Sydney on 15 May 1890 (yes, very young), but not before fathering 5 children. Hugh stayed in England, dying in London on 22 January 1887 (retired Superintendent of the Met Police).

Email me at alanrh@me.com (updated address) and I'll send you a copy of all the data I have, including a .gedcom file of that part of my lineage.

Hello Alan

We appear to share the same great grandfather. as my great grandfather was also Hugh Eccles. His son Hugh George Eccles was my grandfather. . Hugh George had four children - George Hugh, Marian (May) Charlotte, Helene Elizabeth, Frank - of whom my father Frank was the youngest. Frank was born in Emu Park Qld.

I would be grateful if you are able to share any information regarding the family with me. My brothers and I had no idea that our grandfather had a brother Frank in Australia with decendants. I would be happy to provide any info regarding my side of the Eccles family with you
Kind regards Lorraine Ternouth (nee Eccles) lternouth@bigpond.com
