Transcription - On Thursday the last remains of Mrs Hulme, wife of Mr W. Hulme, of Horseshoe Creek, Milawa, were interred in the Oxley General Cemetery. Mrs Hulme was very much respected by a large circle of friends, and at the time of her death had almost reached the allotted "threescore years and ten." The funeral train was attended by a large number of persons, who thus testified to the great respect in which the deceased lady was held, the Rev. A. Macfarlane conducting the funeral


Milawa CemeteryMilawa Cemetery (from http://milawa.vic.au/town-history/)

"The cemetery at Milawa is often known as the Oxley Cemetery. It was established in 1864, after considerable discussion about a suitable site. It was expanded in area by approximately two acres towards the west within the first twelve months – Robert Snowdon being the first interment there. The different denominations have their own areas, and all the graves face the east. The cemetery contains a number of European settlers, Aboriginals and Chinese, although the burial places of the Aboriginals and Chinese are not known, many early records having been lost, damaged or destroyed.” from Memories of Oxley, p. 46

52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks - Week 9 - Herbert Hulme's Will

Herbert Joseph Hulme
photo from the album of my
maternal grandmother
Daisy Fleming
nee Morgan.




The theme for week 9 of the 52 Ancestors challenge is 
"Where there's a Will". 


My grandmother's maternal Uncle Herb was born Herbert Joseph Hulme at Oxley, Victoria in 1892.

I think Uncle Herb must have been a bit of a character judging by this photo that is in my Nan's album.


Front left is my Nan, Daisy Morgan, behind her is "Aunt Chub" who was Herb's sister Pleasance Alice Hulme.  Nan couldn't remember who was hidden behind the pole. The young girl peeping around the post is Herb's niece, Dulcie Simmonds (the executor of his Will, Dulcie Simmonds), then Herb pulling a face and in the background is Nan's father Bill (William Thomas) Morgan.

Herb never married and died on the 8th of October 1969 at Wangaratta aged 77 years.

He was the second son and second youngest child of the ten children of Joseph Hulme and Anna Dorothea nee Bartsh of Milawa.

Herbert and his sister Pleasance, who I wrote about in week 6 of this challenge, were both unmarried and were left the family farm when their father died in 1920.  Their mother had died in 1908 at the young age of 53.

Pleasance had died in 1965 so Herb may have sold the farm.
I am awaiting the Probate inventory to find out but Herb left quite a sum of money to both the Wangaratta Technical School and St. Paul's Church at Milawa for scholarships in his name as described below.

The family Bible was left to his niece Jessie Jean Pollack, nee Hulme who was the only daughter of Herb's older brother, Sydney Frederick Hulme.

One day I will take a trip to Milawa to see the Church.

*Updated - A couple of months later my son took me on that trip to Milawa.




More information and photos of St. Paul's Church can be seen at the

Transcription: 
DEATH OF AN OLD MILAWA IDENTITY
Mr. Joseph Hulme
A very old identity of Milawa, in the person of Mr. Joseph Hulme, died at his residence, "Woodlands," Milawa, on Sunday. from an internal complaint, from which he had suffered for some time, and his death was heard of with expressions of regret throughout the district. with which he was honorably identified for very many years. He was 77 years of age. Born at Putney, England, the late Mr. Hulme came to Australia in the ship Kent, with his uncle, Mr. Arthur Land, of Carboor, and landed In Melbourne in 1860, after a voyage of 100 days. He went to reside at Milawa, where he carried on farming pursuits during the whole of his life, He proved very Industrious and capable in farm work from the time he left school. When 16 years of age he was a competitor in the boy's classes at one of the first ploughing matches held at Oxley, and amongst his opponents was Mr. W. R. Doig, of Laceby Estate, and now of Wangaratta. He also took an Interest in sport and was a playing member of the first cricket club at Oxley. He also owned several racehorses and trotters and won numerous events at district race meetings. Throughout his long residence in Milawa he never varied in the estimation of the public and was always regarded as a man of the highest principles, who Industriously followed his avocation in Iife, was honorable in all his business dealings and willingly assisted his neighbor whenever he could. His death ends a fine career as one of the early farmers of Milawa district, and the late Mr. Hulme's life was a fine example of a good living and Integrity.

52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks - Week 6 : Favourite Name - Pleasance Hulme

A favourite name in my family tree is Pleasance Alice.

Pleasance Alice Hulme was my maternal great-grandaunt.
She was born at Oxley in 1890 the 2nd youngest daughter of Joseph Hulme and Anna Dorothea nee Bartsh.

Photo labelled "Auntie Pleasance Hulme" in my grandmother's album.
The first entry in the Victorian electoral rolls for Pleasance is in 1917 when she is a Nurse living at Gray Street in Wangaratta.

In 1917 her sister Lucy Jemima Simmonds nee Hulme died.  Family members have said that pleasance raised Lucy's only surviving daughter Dulcie who was a year old at her mother's death.

From 1918 to 1920 she was nursing her father who was ill for 2 years.
"Excerpt from Obituary in "Wangaratta Chronicle" 3-10-1920
After an illness of two years duration, Mr Joseph Hulme died on Sunday, at his home at Milawa, the cause being heart failure.  Throughout he was attentively cared for by his daughters."
In 1921 Pleasance was a Nurse at The Women's hospital in Carlton South.

From 1924 to 1936 she was a Nurse living in Milawa.

This photo is also from my grandmother's photo album.
Labelled Aunt Chub, Dulcie Simmonds, Daisy Morgan, Uncle Herb and Grandad Morgan.
It looks like they are in the tomato patch!

Pleasance, behind the post, was known as Aunt Chub. Why I have no idea.
Uncle Herb is Herbert Hulme her younger brother.  I am fairly certain Dulcie is the girl in white.  I don't know who the girl far left is.  My grandmother Daisy is beside the post, "Grandad Morgan" is her father, William Thomas Morgan. He married Pleasance and Herb's older sister, my great-grandmother, Ada May Hulme.
The photo was possibly taken around 1926 at Moyhu.

In 1937 Pleasance occupation was Home duties at 34 Hotham Street Ballarat.  No further details found as yet.
1943 her occupation was Sales and she was living at 475 Burke Road, Kooyong.  No further details found as yet.

1949 to 1963 saw Pleasance living at 27 Peate Avenue, Camberwell/Glen Iris. Again her occupation was Home duties.

Living next door was her niece, Dulcie Enid Collier nee Simmonds who Pleasance raised after the death of her sister,  Dulcie's mother, Lucy Jemima Simmonds, nee Hulme in 1917.

Pleasance died on the 5th of July, 1965.

In her Will, she left everything to her niece Dulcie including her house at 27 Peate Avenue.

Jessie Anna GRANT nee HULME Obituary

Jessie Anna HULME, was an older sister of my maternal great-grandmother Ada May HULME. 
Jessie died on the 21st of September, 1918 at the very young age of 38 years.
She was born at Oxley, North East Victoria, on the 28th of January 1880, the third daughter of Joseph HULME and Anna Dorothea nee BARTSH.

Jessie married Walter Alfred GRANT 
Wangaratta Chronicle 25 September 1918

In my grandmother's photo album is a postcard photo of young Ossie Maxwell Joffre GRANT at 5 years of age.

I think from memory my great-grandmother was known as Auntie Top.
Jessie and Walter moved down to Melbourne, probably to be near the hospital.  After Jessie's death, going by information on the electoral roll entries, I think Walter was living with his sister, Ethel Grace GRANT.  Perhaps she looked after Ossie for him.

Sydney Frederick HULME was my maternal grandmother's Uncle.
His birth was registered at Oxley, Victoria in 1882 and he was the eldest son (fourth child) of Joseph HULME and Anna Dorothea nee BARTSCH.

I can't really grasp what the incident was all about but Sydney was found not guilty.




Sometime between 1914 and 1924 Sydney and his wife, Jane moved from the Milawa area to Heidelberg,  a suburb of Melbourne.

Sydney died in 1963.  
Death was recorded at Preston which is near Heidelberg.

Trove Tuesday - Hulme families cricket match at Milawa.

In 1887 my Hulme, Land and Bartsch family members played a cricket match against Oxley at Milawa in North East Victoria.


CRICKET.
Hulme Families v Oxley.
(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
This novel cricket match was played at Milawa on Thursday, by way of celebrating the memory of St. Patrick, and done, too, it was to perfection— a festive day was spent. The former were cricketers chosen from a number of relations, who desired to try their skill against the local team, which they did, and were, watched with no common interest. The whole of the day's amusement was by no means confined to the national game, but picnicking, in its usual fashion, helped to complete the pleasure. Refreshments for the numerous spectators and cricketers were supplied with a most liberal hand by Mr. Edward HuIme, sen.
Perhaps a more social game at cricket was never before played on the Oxley ground; and it was quite certain that so many Hulmes, in masculine vigor feminine beauty never graced at one time the park before, for representatives of the Hulme families, inhabiting a very extensive district; were present — a large tribe; indeed and a good old English stock, to be the forefathers of that already, familiar name, " Hulme," of the generations between this and "Kingdom come." The match was commenced at one o'clock and was played with vigor till sunset. The Hulme families went first to the wickets and put together 45 runs in their first innings. Oxley, in their innings, however, exceeded this score by 28; out of the grand total, 73, Ellis making 21 and J. Reid 14. 
The former team played a   second innings, scoring this time 48. Time not permitting a continuation of the game, the match was decided in favor of Oxley. Some good batting and bowling were at times very conspicuous on both sides. 
The fielding was of a first-class order. 

Appended are the scores:

The old original broken headstone has been replaced by a new one.  I don't know when or by whom as my request to Carol for copies of photos is the first time I have seen them.

The list of cemeteries photographed can be found at  Carol's headstone photos





Mary's husband Joseph died in Norfolk, England in 1852 so Mary came to Australia in 1862 with her daughter, Hephzibah and son in law William Cluff Hulme.  Other family members had earlier already migrated here.

Sunday's Obituary - Joseph Hulme

 My great great grandfather, Joseph Hulme, was born in Putney, England in 1843, third child and second son of his parents, William Clough/Cluff Hulme and Hephzibah nee Land.

Excerpt from Obituary in "Wangaratta Chronicle" 3-10-1920

After an illness of two years duration, Mr Joseph Hulme died on Sunday, at his home at Milawa, the cause being heart failure.  Throughout he was attentively cared for by his daughters.

The late Mr Hulme was a well known figure in the Milawa and Oxley districts, and had lived there for just on sixty years, carrying on mixed farming and dairying, his herd of Jersey cattle being one of the finest thereabouts.

Mr Hulme, who was 79 years of age was a native of Putney, England and in the year 1860 he came to Australia with his Uncle Mr. Arthur Land, who is still living at Carboor.  The voyage out in the sailing ship "Kent" occupying over 100 days.

His father was the late William Cluff Hulme of Milawa.  Mr Hulme did not take part in public affairs but gave his undivided attention to the management of his farm, which he worked successfully.

When a lad of sixteen years,  he competed in a boys class at one of the first ploughing matches held at Oxley, having for an opponent, Mr W. R. Doig, now of Wangaratta, and in later years he won several prizes as a ploughman,

He was fond of sport and was a member of the first cricket club formed at Milawa, his ability with bat and ball winning him the distinction of being one of the best cricketers of his day, in the Milawa district.

He was of a retiring nature, but his genial disposition, strict integrity in all things, and fine neighbourly qualities, won him the respect of the people.

He was married at Beechworth and his wife .......... (next part missing, will add at a later date when found.)

He is survived by six daughters and two sons, namely
Mrs. L Davenport New Zealand,
Mrs G Wright, Wagga,
Mrs W Morgan, Moyhu,
Misses Clara, Elsie and Pleasance Hulme,
and Messrs Herbert and Sydney Hulme, Milawa.

He leaves twenty two grandchildren and three great grandchildren.

Brothers and sisters of the deceased are -

Messrs Albert and Jeremiah Hulme, Bowman's
and Mrs Jessie McGregor, Milawa.

Seeking family of Rowland John Jones of Moyhu


My step dad gave me a little embroidered postcard he had found and asked if I could trace any family for it.

We would like to try to reunite the postcard with family members.

He couldn't remember exactly where it was found but he thinks it may have been in an opportunity shop he and my mum did voluntary work for before she passed away.



A letter was written on the back by Rowland (Rowlie) Jones and it was sent from France in 1916 to a young girl named Clarice.


Transcribed as follows:-
6760 Pte R. J. Jones B Coy 5 Btn AIF abroad France July 21st  '18
Dear Clarice 
It is too bad of me not to have answered your most welcome letter before.  It is very good of you to write so often.  I was pleased to get your letter yesterday and also one from your mother and was pleased to hear you are all well.  No doubt you are a big girl now and a great help to your mother.  I am enjoying good health and very seldom have a days illness.  I hope you like this card.  I will close. Hope this finds you all well.  With kindest regards to all.  
With love xxxx from Rowlie 

Thankfully the letter had Rowlies' Battalion and service number so into the Australian War Memorial search where I found his embarkation information and then his war service record in  National Archives.

There I found he was born in 1893 at Milawa, Victoria and next of kin was his father who had the frustratingly common name of David Jones.  Their address was Moyhu, Victoria.

I knew where Moyhu was, my maternal grandmother and her siblings were all born there and funnily enough in later years (1930) my grandmother's eldest sister, whose name was also Clarice, married a David Jones! Our Clarice would have been 13 years old in 1918 and they also lived at Moyhu.
Family friends with perhaps a later connection ...... I wonder?......... perhaps more searching to do there.

Into  Ancestry.com.au, and Trove,  to search for Rowland "Rowlie" J Jones.

In Trove I found this article which disagrees somewhat with his statement to young Clarice that he was enjoying good health:



Rowlie was a farmer at Moyhu and after the war he married Isabel Munro.  They farmed at Moyhu for the remainder of their lives.  Isabel died in 1968 and Rowlie lived on until he was 94 years old in 1987.

I don't know if they had any surviving children but sadly it seems they lost 3 young sons between 1932 and 1935.  Ian in 1932 age 3.  Rowland jnr in 1934 and John in 1935  (haven't found their birth years)

They are all buried at the Milawa cemetery along with some other of their family members.

Rowlies mother was Elizabeth nee Cozens, she married David Jones in 1892.
He had a younger brother named William Cozens Jones and four younger sisters, Louisa, Mary, Ida and Edith.

If anyone knows of any living family members please let me know.

He married Anna Dorothea nee Bartsch at Beechworth on the 16th of March 1875 and they farmed for many years at Horseshoe Creek, near Moyhu, Victoria and their farm may have been called Putney Park.
