Jukes Family Scrapbook

Family tree

These charts show the direct ancestors of Matthew Amos Jukes, drawn from the Jukes Ancestry tree. Chart 1 covers five generations. Where a line goes further back, the right-hand box says "continued on chart N", and that chart picks up from that person. A blue edge means a man and a pink edge a woman. Dates and places are as the tree records them, so some are rough or uncertain. The Phipps line joins through Frances McGuinness, who appears on the continuation charts on Patricia Howarth's side.

How this scrapbook works

Everything collected for the Jukes tree lives here, grouped under each person's name. Each entry gives Tree says (what the tree file currently records), then each item found, then To check (conflicts or gaps to resolve before changing the tree). All conflicts are also collected in the final section.

Batch 2 is all from the Howarth / Lilley line in Victoria, Australia. That's the Jukes tree's link through Patricia Howarth (b. 1952), who married David George Ernest Jukes:

• Rosina Lilley née Dyer (1844–1914)
• Jane Howarth née Lilley (1864–1953) and her husband Eli James Howarth (c. 1866–1948)
• Their children and grandchildren, as recorded on a family album page
• Several Howarth photographs not yet identified

The Phipps and Morris line is part of the Jukes tree too. That line runs George Barclay Phipps (Barbados → Launceston, Tasmania) → Elizabeth Peney Phipps → the Morris family of Daylesford, Victoria, including Samuel "Sam" Morris the Test cricketer. It was first kept in a separate Phipps scrapbook. The three Morris PDFs were saved from the Jukes tree on Ancestry (tree 171981820).

Order: entries run chronologically, earliest-born person first. Family-level items (the Howarth album page) follow their family's senior member. The unidentified photographs and the open questions come last.

How the lines connect to the Jukes family

Added from the Ancestry tree (tree 171981820, 516 people). The tree's home person is Matthew Amos Jukes, son of David George Ernest Jukes (b. 1952) and Patricia Howarth (b. 1952). Every other section in this scrapbook feeds into one of these two parents.

Father's side (Jukes):

• John Jukes (1774 Birmingham) → John Jukes (1800 Birmingham, convict, Coburg pioneer) + Harriett Cromwell → Frederick William Jukes (1861) + Rosey Fisher → Ernest Leslie Jukes (1894) + Bertha Hall → Arthur Jukes (1919) → David George Ernest Jukes.
• Harker of Swaledale → Thomas Harker (1850) + Catherine Griffiths → George Ernest Harker (1894) + Mary Elizabeth Hazeldene McKay → Dulcie Hazel Harker (1920), who married Arthur Jukes.

Mother's side (Howarth):

• George Barclay Phipps + Ann Penny → Elizabeth Peney Phipps + James Joseph McGinnis → Frances McGuinness (1842) + Matthew Heither → Mary Alice Heither + William Joseph Patrick Power → Olive Muriel Power (1905) + Eli John Howarth → Thomas Alfred Howarth (1926).
• Munro of Armadale and McDonald of Skye → Norman Hume McDonald + Johan Munro → Godfrey John McDonald → Jeanette Belinda McDonald (1901) + William Charles Kendrick → Hazel May Kendrick (1928), who married Thomas Alfred Howarth. They were Patricia Howarth's parents.

Sam Morris and the Morris family are not direct ancestors. Sam was Elizabeth Peney Phipps's son by her second partner, Isaac Morris. That makes him a half-brother of Frances McGuinness, from whom the family descends.

The Harker family of Swaledale (1659 onwards)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: William Harker (b. 1659) is their 8× great-grandfather, on their father's side through their grandmother Dulcie Harker. William Harker and Elizabeth Hird (married 1831) are their 3× great-grandparents.

Tree says: the Harkers were a Swaledale family in the North Riding of Yorkshire, in the parishes of Muker and Grinton (Low Row, Reeth). The tree takes the line back to William Harker, born 1659 at Muker. Marriages in the line include:

• Simon Harker and Dinah Lonsdale, Grinton, 1 March 1753
• William Harker (1754–1813) and Ann Hannah Calvert, Grinton, 12 October 1773
• William Harker (1807–1877) and Elizabeth Hird (or Herd), Grinton, 4 October 1831

William and Elizabeth had twelve children. The youngest son, Thomas, born 1850 at Low Row, emigrated to Victoria (see Thomas Harker, below). The family name Hird/Herd was used again in Australia for Thomas's son Robert Herd Harker.

Swaledale in these years was a lead-mining and hill-farming dale. Many Low Row and Reeth families left when the mines declined from the 1870s, which fits Thomas's emigration.

To check: each generation's link before 1807 against the Grinton and Muker registers. The tree has several Williams and Simons born close together.

Munro and Mackay of Armadale, Farr (1763 onwards)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: Alexander Munro and Barbara Mackay are their 5× great-grandparents, and Donald Munro their 4× great-grandfather. This is on their mother's side, through their grandmother Hazel May Kendrick.

Tree says: Alexander Munro (1763 – 1835 Armadale, Sutherland) was a master carpenter and boatbuilder. He owned the Armadale Inn and was appointed in 1784 by the Earl of Caithness. His wife, Barbara Mackay, was a relative of the Mackay chief. The tree's sources for him are:

• Burke's Colonial Gentry, which calls the family "of the family of Foulis" (the Munro chiefs)
• the 1811 census of Farr parish
• the 1834 Rental of Farr

Their son Donald Munro was born in 1802 at Armadale, Farr. He married Georgina Ann Scobie McKay and emigrated; he died at Prahran in 1869. The tree includes a "pound fees" record for him from 1869.

Donald's daughter Johan McKenzie Munro was born 15 September 1833 at Glen Dubh, Edderachillis. She married Norman Hume McDonald (see his section, below).

A Munro family emigration document in the tree is headed "Highland Clearance" and dated 29 July 1854, with Liverpool and Melvich named. It includes Norman Hume Macdonald and Andrew Jack. The date fits the Highland and Island Emigration Society, which sent assisted emigrants from Sutherland and the Western Isles to Australia between 1852 and 1857 (Scotland's People).

To check: the ship name. The Highland and Island Emigration Society registers on Scotland's People list each family by ship.

Chapter 1 — John Jukes of Birmingham (1774–1866)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: their 4× great-grandfather, on their father's (Jukes) side.

Tree says: born 1774 in Birmingham and died 1866 at Aston, Warwickshire. He married Elizabeth Harris (b. April 1785). Their sons were William (1799–1873) and John, born 6 October 1800, the John Jukes who was transported to Van Diemen's Land (see below). Nothing more about this generation is in the tree.

To check: Elizabeth's birth year of 1785 would make her about 14 when William was born in 1799. Either her birth date or the order of the children is probably wrong.

Chapter 2 — George Barclay Phipps (1784–1844)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: George and Ann Penny are their 5× great-grandparents, on their mother's side. The line runs through their grandfather Thomas Alfred Howarth's mother, Olive Power.

Tree says: George was born 27 Jul, St Christopher, Barbados, and baptised 24 Sep 1784, St Michael, Barbados; son of John Patrick Phipps and Elizabeth Kidney. He left in Nov 1816 and arrived in New South Wales on 10 Apr 1817. He married Mary Robinson (18 Jan 1819) and then Ann Penny (17 Nov 1823), both in Launceston. He died 15 Aug 1844 in Launceston and was "buried Tasmania". Ann Penny was born 1802 in West Bengal, India, and died 5 Sep 1837 at the Colonial Hospital, Hobart.

Item 1 — Headstone cairn, Cypress Street burial ground, Launceston

The photo is watermarked TheGardensFamily.com. That site's Cypress St Cemetery Launceston page describes a cairn built from headstone remnants found nearby. It stands at Launceston Church Grammar School (Lyttleton Street, behind Broadland House). Fragments of "ELIZ…" and "W…" can be read on the stones, but no complete names.

The Cypress Street Burial Ground was St John's Church of England ground. It was consecrated in 1823, closed to new burials in 1909, and cleared of all headstones in 1953 when it became a park. Burial there fits George, who married at St John's and died in Launceston in 1844.

To check: George's burial entry in the St John's / Cypress Street registers (the tree only says "Tasmania"). Ann died in Hobart, so she was probably buried there, not in Launceston.

Item 2 — Baptism, St Michael, Barbados, 1784

24. George Barclay, Son of John & Eliza Phipps — born 27th July last

This matches the tree's baptism of 24 Sep 1784 and birth of 27 Jul [1784]. The mother's name is written Eliza, while the tree has Elizabeth Kidney.

Item 3 — England & Wales Criminal Register, Middlesex, 1816 (p. 121)

Item 4 — Tasmania, Comprehensive Register of Convicts (CON series), N–Z, 1804–1847

The entry reads: 142 — Morley (1) — Phipps George — Middlesex G.D. [Gaol Delivery] — 10 July 1816 — 7 [years].

Item 5 — Web: Australia, Convict Records Index

Item 6 — NSW Colonial Secretary's Papers, 28 Jun 1817

George Phipps, "Per Morley, 1817", was assigned to Captain Andrew Barclay at Port Dalrymple on 28 Jun 1817 (NRS 937, p. 216–7). That explains the tree's "departure from NSW 25 Jun 1817": he was shipped south to Van Diemen's Land as Barclay's assigned servant.

Item 7 — His Ancestry profile (facts page)

This adds two facts the tree file doesn't show. His death is in the Tasmanian death index, 1844/181, age 80. The informant was James McGuiness, "son" — really his son-in-law, Elizabeth's husband.

The page also carries a "Residence 1839, Middlesex" taken from the Pigot's directory. That can't be right, as he was in Tasmania by then (see George Phipps of Enfield, below).

Is this one man?

The convict records don't mention Barbados, and a London shipwright aged 24 is hard to square with a Barbados-born man of 32. There's also a coincidence: the convict was assigned to a Captain Barclay. That fits either explanation — a real family connection, or the name leading to the wrong baptism being attached.

Update, October 2026: Old Bailey records checked. The Old Bailey records for the July 1816 trial have now been checked. The case that the convict George Phipps is the same man as the George Barclay Phipps of the Jukes family tree is very strong, although the connection is not definitive. This scrapbook treats them as the same man unless new evidence says otherwise.

Still to check: his conduct record and indent for the Morley (Tasmanian Archives CON series; NSW Convict Indents) may give his native place, trade and physical description. Captain Andrew Barclay of Launceston's own background (a ship's master?) might explain a Barbados connection.

More about George from the family tree

The Ancestry tree attaches four more items to George. The images themselves were not in the tree file, only their titles and notes.

Convict details (from the Beyond the Pale site): eyes dark brown; age 30; shipwright; sentenced in London, July 1815, to 7 years; ships Morley and Elizabeth Henrietta; native place: Boston; Tasmanian Archives CON 23/3.

The entry has two differences from the other records:

• The sentence year. It says July 1815, but the Old Bailey reference and the criminal register both give the July 1816 sessions. 1816 fits the voyage: the Morley left England on 18 December 1816 and reached Sydney on 10 April 1817, with 175 men and no deaths (Free Settler or Felon). The Elizabeth Henrietta was then presumably the ship that took him on from Sydney to Port Dalrymple.
• The native place. It says "Boston", while one published account of Sam Morris calls his grandfather "George Phipps, from St. Kitts" (Cricket Country). Boston could be Boston in Lincolnshire or Boston in Massachusetts.

Old Bailey trial: George's trial is in the Proceedings of the Old Bailey for the July 1816 sessions, reference t18160710-125: read the trial on Old Bailey Online. The Ancestry tree gives the reference as t18160710-43, which looks to be a mistake.

"Trafalgar": a sketch of the homesite of Captain Andrew Barclay, George's assigned master. Barclay reached Sydney in 1816 or 1817 and went on to Van Diemen's Land, where Governor Macquarie granted him 500 acres. He settled at Cambock, near Launceston. A short Life of Captain Andrew Barclay of Cambock was published in Edinburgh in about 1854 (a copy is in the National Library of Australia). George's middle name, Barclay, and his posting to Barclay suggest a closer tie than an ordinary assignment. The Life is worth reading for any mention of him.

Kidney line of Barbados: the tree gives George a Barbados ancestry through the Kidney family, back to an Alexander Kidney born about 1590. This is the least secure part of the tree. One entry places Mary Hollinshead's birth in "1645 West Nimba, Liberia", which cannot be right for a Barbados settler family of that date.

Checked (October 2026): the Old Bailey record (t18160710-125) has been read. It makes a very strong, though not definitive, case that this is the same George Phipps (see Is this one man?, above). Still to check: weigh "Boston" against the Barbados and St Kitts stories.

Chapter 3 — George Phipps of Enfield (saddler, 1839)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: not known, because this George isn't linked in the tree.

Tree says: no George Phipps in Enfield. The tree's George Barclay Phipps was in Launceston by 1819 and died there in 1844.

Item 1 — Pigot's Directory 1839, Middlesex: Enfield

Under Saddlers and Harness Makers the directory lists:

• Crossingham Stephn. Enfield highwy
• Grout Thomas, Silver st
• Phipps George, Enfield
• Smith William, Enfield highway

The screenshot is from an online viewer (England › Middlesex › 1839 Pigot's Directory, page 18 of 197).

He was a different convict. According to Convict Records: George Phipps:

• A George Phipps, harness and collar maker (also listed as saddler and harness maker), born 1 Jan 1801, was convicted at the Central Criminal Court in 1847 of forgery. Research notes on the site say he forged signatures to take money from his wife's inheritance.
• He was sentenced to 10 years' transportation and sailed on the Pyrenees (departed 14 Mar 1851), arriving in Western Australia on 28 Jun 1851. He got a ticket of leave the same day and a conditional pardon on 30 Sep 1853.
• He left a wife, Elizabeth Mary Bradley Phipps, and seven children in Enfield. His parents were George and Susanna Phipps of Epping, Essex.

This is almost certainly the Enfield saddler of 1839, and not the tree's George Barclay Phipps. Remove the "Residence 1839, Middlesex" fact from George Barclay Phipps's profile. Keep this entry only if you want to record him as an unrelated namesake.

Chapter 4 — James Joseph McGinnis (1795–1857)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: their 4× great-grandfather, on their mother's side.

Tree says: born 1795 in Antigua and died 15 July 1857 at Redstone Hill, Bulla, Victoria. He was Elizabeth Peney Phipps's first husband; they married 19 December 1838 at St John's Anglican Church, Launceston. The tree's convict records for him are:

• tried at the Surrey quarter sessions, 1819
• transported on HMS Dromedary, 1819
• certificate of freedom, 6 June 1826; the Sydney Gazette of 14 June 1826 is attached
• Sydney gaol logbook, 1834
• Tasmanian conduct record CON31/1/15

The voyage: the Dromedary left England on 11 September 1819 under Captain Richard Skinner RN, with surgeon George Fairfowl and 370 men. She reached Hobart on 9 January 1820, where 347 men were landed and nearly all assigned to settlers. The remaining men were landed at Port Jackson later that month (Free Settler or Felon). The same ship later carried Commissioner Bigge home to England.

Earlier families: the tree gives James two earlier marriages:

• to Esther Doyle, Sydney, 18 September 1827
• to an Ann (1811–1838), about 1832, "New Zealand". Their three sons were born in Launceston; two died in 1838, the same year Ann died.

His children with Elizabeth were George (1838), Frances (1842) and Edward Robert (1844).

To check: the tree links two Convict Records profiles to him, one as McGinnis and one as McGuiness. Make sure they are the same man. The Antigua birthplace also needs a source: James Joseph, George Phipps and Isaac Morris would then all have come from the Caribbean.

Chapter 5 — John Jukes (1800–1890) and Harriett Cromwell (1824–1909)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: John and Harriett are their 3× great-grandparents, on their father's (Jukes) side.

Tree says: John was born 6 October 1800 at St Martin's, Birmingham, the son of John Jukes and Elizabeth Harris. He came to Tasmania as a convict; the tree links his record at Tasmanian Archives CON33/1/67. He later settled at Fawkner, north of Melbourne, and died at Coburg on 30 August 1890.

The tree's media for him are:

• his convict record
• an item titled "John Jukes early pioneer"
• a newspaper notice of 10 October 1890
• a photograph of the grave he shares with Harriett

Harriett was born in 1824 in Bath, the daughter of Luke Cromwell and Esther (Hester) Elford, who married at St James, Bath, on 3 March 1822. She first married George William Strugnell (April 1840, Bradford-on-Avon) and had three Strugnell children; two of them later used the Jukes name. She died at Coburg on 12 January 1909, aged 85.

John and Harriett's children were:

• Henry Joseph (1844)
• John (1849, died as an infant in Melbourne)
• Harriet (1851)
• Elizabeth (about 1855)
• Peter (1857, died as an infant)
• Frederick William (1861)

To check:

• The convict record (CON33/1/67) will give his trial, ship and arrival year. CON33 covers men who arrived from 1840 onwards, so he was probably transported in his 40s.
• Henry Joseph was born in 1844, while Harriett was still Mrs Strugnell. Look for a Victorian marriage record for John and Harriett.
• The "early pioneer" item is probably a local history of Fawkner or Coburg. Find its source.

Found online: local histories credit a John Jukes with naming the suburb. In 1850 John Pascoe Fawkner had subdivided land north of Melbourne into small farms (Box Forest, later known as Hadfield); in 1867 John Jukes bought the estate and named it Fawkner, after him (eMelbourne; also Andrew Lemon, Broadmeadows: A Forgotten History, 1982). Jukes Road, Fawkner, is one of the streets named after the original farmers. This is very probably the "John Jukes early pioneer" item.

Two transported convicts named John Jukes from the Birmingham area are on Convict Records: one tried at Warwick Assizes and sentenced to life, who reached Van Diemen's Land on the Earl St Vincent on 13 August 1826 (record 79181); and one tried at the Birmingham Borough Quarter Sessions and sentenced to 7 years, who reached Van Diemen's Land on the Theresa on 3 July 1845 (record 21600). The Theresa man, arriving in 1845 aged about 44, fits the tree's CON33 reference best, since that series covers arrivals from the 1840s; neither is yet proven to be this John.

Chapter 6 — Matthew Heither (1822–1894)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: their 3× great-grandfather, on their mother's side.

Tree says: born 30 March 1822 at Camborne, Cornwall, the son of William Heither and Margery Arthur, who married at Camborne on 24 June 1809. The name is also spelt Heather, Heathier and Hetheer.

He first married Grace Rogers at Camborne on 20 July 1846; she died in 1854. Camborne was the heart of Cornish tin and copper mining, and Matthew next appears at Daylesford on the Victorian goldfields. There he married Frances McGuinness on 26 December 1877, though several of their children were born long before that.

He died on 16 March 1894 at 5 Clark Street, Prahran. The tree also gives him two children born in 1889 and 1892 with Emma Cameron.

To check: his arrival in Victoria, probably as an assisted Cornish miner in the 1850s. Check whether the eldest Heither children listed, Ezekiel (1855) and Elizabeth (about 1861), are really Frances's. Frances was only 13 in 1855.

Chapter 7 — Elizabeth Peney Phipps (1824–1894)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: their 4× great-grandmother, on their mother's side.

Tree says: born 1 Oct 1824, Launceston; baptised 2 Jan 1825; daughter of George Barclay Phipps and Ann Penny. Her partners:

• James Joseph McGuinniss (1795–1857), married 19 Dec 1838 at St John's, Launceston, when she was 14. Children George (1838), Frances (1842) and Edward Robert (1844).
• Isaac Morris (c. 1830–1885), married 6 Apr 1885 at Hard Hills, Daylesford. Children Samuel (1855) and Matthew (1859).
• Thomas Best (1818–1888).

She died 27 Oct 1894 at Daylesford, Victoria.

Item 1 — Her Ancestry profile header

The profile is tagged Direct Ancestor and Common DNA Ancestor. Ancestry has found DNA matches who also descend from her, which is useful evidence for the Phipps line. Her first husband is spelled James Joseph Magennis here, and her death place is given as Hard Hills, Daylesford. The profile also shows a "Departure, Nov 1812", twelve years before she was born. That fact was probably copied from her father's record and should be removed.

On Sam Morris's parentage: the Carlton Cricket Club report (under Samuel Morris, below) says Sam's parents were West Indians who came from Barbados, but Elizabeth was born in Launceston. Her father was Barbadian, though.

To check: Sam was born in 1855, while Elizabeth's first husband was still alive (d. 1857). Is she really Sam's mother, or was his mother Isaac's first wife ("unknown", m. 1849 Launceston)? The 1885 marriage to Isaac came 30 years after Sam's birth, only months before Isaac died. Look at Sam's birth registration (Hobart, 1855) for his mother's name.

Chapter 8 — Norman Hume McDonald (1828–1902) and Johan Munro (1833–1883)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: Norman and Johan are their 3× great-grandparents, on their mother's side, through their grandmother Hazel May Kendrick.

Tree says: Norman was born in 1828 in Strath parish, Isle of Skye, the son of Godfrey McDonald (1798–1841) and Elizabeth Montgomery (1797–1858). The tree takes the Macdonald ancestry back through Skye and South Uist, and Elizabeth's through the Montgomery and MacLeod families of Portree.

Norman married Johan McKenzie Munro on 28 January 1852 at the Free Church, West Port, St Cuthbert's parish, Edinburgh. They sailed from Liverpool for Victoria in 1854 (see the Munro emigration document, above).

They had thirteen children. The births began at Fryers Creek on the Castlemaine goldfields, where Godfrey John was born in 1857, and later ones were at Strangways and Footscray. Johan died at Footscray on 11 July 1883.

Norman was hurt in a train accident at Yarraville on 3 January 1885, described in an article by Elizabeth Montgomery Macdonald. The tree also has an event for him at Footscray on 14 January 1885. He died on 6 May 1902 at 14 York Street, Yarraville. The tree also has a photograph of Norman and Johan's children.

Their son Godfrey John "Goody" MacDonald (26 May 1857 Fryers Creek – 18 December 1942, The Esplanade, Altona) married first Jessie May Stokend Isbister (1885, Fitzroy), who died in 1895. He married second Jessie May McPherson (1875–1952; married 1897, Fitzroy). Goody has his own chapter (Chapter 15). One of his sixteen children was Jeanette Belinda McDonald (29 March 1901 Footscray – 1978 Clunes), Hazel May Kendrick's mother.

To check: the 1885 accident in the Footscray Independent or The Argus on Trove, and whether the 14 January 1885 event was an inquest or a court case about it.

Chapter 9 — Isaac Morris (1830–1885)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: not a blood relative. Isaac was the second partner of their 4× great-grandmother Elizabeth Peney Phipps, and the father of Sam Morris.

Tree says: born 1830, Barbados; son of James Morris and Frances. He married an unknown first wife in 1849 at Launceston (daughter Sarah, before 1855 – before 1885). He married Elizabeth Peney Phipps on 6 Apr 1885 at Hard Hills, Daylesford, and died there on 25 Aug 1885. Sons: Samuel (1855) and Matthew (1859, d. 1927 Cheltenham, Victoria; m. Margaret Malcolm, 1896).

Item 1 — Photograph (saved from Ancestry, 14 Oct 2020)

He is shown seated, in a flat cap and jacket, cropped from a larger outdoor group (other people's arms and legs are visible at the edges). The page is titled "Isaac Morris" and comes from the Jukes Ancestry tree (person 382231869662).

To check: where the full group photo comes from, and its date. If it was taken after 1885, it can't be this Isaac. Ian Woodward's 2009 book on Sam Morris (see Samuel Morris below) may be the source.

Chapter 10 — Frances McGuinness (1842–1889)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: their 3× great-grandmother, on their mother's side.

Tree says: born 16 April 1842 at Launceston, the daughter of James Joseph McGinnis and Elizabeth Peney Phipps. She was George Barclay Phipps's granddaughter, and she is the line through which the family descends from him.

Her father died when she was 15. That same year she married Charles McLeod (8 September 1857, Castlemaine). Her son Edward Robert Meginess followed in 1858. The tree also gives her a son, Isaac John Landrim (b. 1856), by Charles Landrim.

She then lived with Matthew Heither, around Daylesford, where her mother and the Morris family also lived. They married at Daylesford on 26 December 1877. Their children included Mary Alice (1865), Eva McGuiness Heither (1866) and Florence Diana (1873).

She married Charles Edwards at Windsor in March 1889 and died at Prahran on 3 July 1889, aged 47.

To check: the order of her partners. The tree's dates overlap, and the Victorian marriage index should sort them out.

Chapter 11 — William Power (1842–1884) and Jane Dalton (1840–1884)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: William and Jane are their 3× great-grandparents, on their mother's side.

Tree says: William was born in 1842 at Ashara, Galway, and married Jane Dalton (b. about 1840) in County Cork on 31 July 1860. Their son William Joseph Patrick was born in Queensland on 19 July 1863, so the couple emigrated soon after their marriage. They later lived in Victoria. They had eleven children, several of whom died young.

Jane died on 28 January 1884 and William on 8 September 1884. The tree records his death "as James Power".

To check: their Queensland arrival (assisted immigrant lists, 1861–63) and the "James Power" death registration.

Chapter 12 — Rosina Lilley (1844–1914)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: their 3× great-grandmother, on their mother's side. The line runs through their grandfather Thomas Alfred Howarth's father, Eli John Howarth.

Tree says: born 26 Oct 1844, Greenwich St Alphege, England; married William Walter Lilley (1837–1907) on 11 June 1862 at Staffordshire Reef, Victoria; ten children including Jane (b. 1864); died 24 Apr 1914, St Vincent's Hospital, Melbourne. The tree already holds her grave inscription and a death notice naming her children.

Item 1 — Portrait (from the family album)

The album label reads: "Rosina Lilley (Jane Howarth's mother) Born at Greenwich, Kent 1844 – 1914". This matches the tree. The album page itself is under The Howarth family album page below.

To check: where and when the original portrait was taken; who holds it.

Chapter 13 — Thomas Harker (1850–1922) and Catherine Griffiths (1856–1932)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: Thomas and Catherine are their great-great-grandparents, on their father's side, through their grandmother Dulcie Harker.

Tree says: Thomas was born in 1850 at Low Row, Swaledale, the son of William Harker and Elizabeth Hird. Catherine was born in 1856 at Shelfield, near Walsall, Staffordshire. They married at Dandenong, Victoria, on 2 February 1879.

Their children were:

• William T (1881, born at Port Augusta, South Australia)
• Florence Annie (1883)
• Margaret (about 1885)
• Robert Herd (about 1886)
• George Ernest (1894)
• David Carrington (1896)
• Beatrice (1899)
• Harry

Thomas died at Lang Lang on 26 January 1922 and Catherine on 24 July 1932. The tree has a Harker family photograph taken about 1905.

Robert Herd Harker was killed in action at Fromelles on 20 July 1916. He was Private 345, A Company, 31st Battalion AIF. Born at Dandenong, a teamster, he enlisted in Melbourne on 19 July 1915, giving his address and his father Thomas's as Yallock, via Koo-wee-rup; he had been to Yannathan State School. He sailed from Melbourne on HMAT Wandilla on 9 November 1915, reached Suez in December, and landed at Marseilles on 23 June 1916, less than a month before the battle — the 31st Battalion's first major action, and the worst day in Australian military history. Unlike many of the Fromelles dead, he has a named grave: Rue-Petillon Military Cemetery, Fleurbaix, Plot I, Row K, Grave 36, where the headstone names him as "son of Thomas and Catherine Harker, of Yallock, Victoria". He is on panel 118 of the Australian War Memorial's Roll of Honour, and was awarded the 1914–15 Star, British War Medal and Victory Medal. (Sources: AIF Project; AWM Roll of Honour; Virtual War Memorial Australia; The War Graves Photographic Project, which has a photo of the headstone.)

To check: Robert's age. The AIF records give 28 at embarkation (born about 1887, which fits the tree's "about 1886"), but the Virtual War Memorial says 1893; his Victorian birth registration would settle it. His digitised service file (NAA B2455, HARKER Robert Herd) and Red Cross Wounded and Missing file (1270402, at the AWM) may describe his death and first burial — the AIF Project notes he was buried by the Rev. J. Green on 20 July 1916, at a site it calls "Eaton Hall Cemetery". Because he has a named grave, he is not one of the unidentified men from Pheasant Wood identified by DNA.

Chapter 14 — Samuel "Sam" Morris (1855–1931)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: their half 4× great-uncle. Sam was a half-brother of their 3× great-grandmother Frances McGuinness: both were children of Elizabeth Peney Phipps, by different fathers.

Tree says: born 22 Jun 1855, Hobart, Tasmania; son of Isaac Morris and Elizabeth Peney Phipps; died 20 Sep 1931 at 29 Moubray Street, Albert Park, Victoria. No wives or children recorded.

Item 1 — Portrait in later life (saved from Ancestry, 14 Oct 2020)

Item 2 — Carlton Cricket Club report (PDF, saved 14 Oct 2020)

This is a profile from Carlton Cricket Club's website (source given as carlton.vic.cricket.com.au). The heading reads: "Morris, Sam — b: 22.6.1855 d: 20.9.1931 — Played 1885/6 (1 Carlton CC Premiership) — Carlton Cap No. 98 — Victorian Cap No. 152 — Australian Cap No. 35".

Photo, January 1931: Sam with his friend Alfred Clarke, "Jean" (probably his daughter-in-law Reta) and grandchildren John and Betty, on the way to meet the West Indies players. It is in the Gallery.

Adds to the tree: two wives, Julia and Jane (possibly Jean Ukermunder, d. 1923); a son (unnamed), whose wife was Margaret Ann "Reta"; grandchildren Horatio John and Elizabeth ("Betty") Morris; his burial place (Melbourne General Cemetery, grave 704); his friend and guardian Alfred Ernest Clarke; and the book: Ian Woodward, Sam Morris (2009).

To check: Victorian marriage records for Sam and Julia, and Sam and Jane/Jean Ukermunder; the son's name; whether Jean and Jane are the same person; the Melbourne General Cemetery record for grave 704.

More about Sam from the family tree and published sources

Grave: the tree has a photograph of the grave Sam shares with Julia Good and Jane Jones. The Melbourne General Cemetery Trust has confirmed that burial.

Biography: Ian Woodward's Sam Morris: Cricket's Capital All-Rounder (95 pages) is reviewed on Cricket Web. Points from the review in the tree:

• Sam did not know he had been a Test cricketer until 1924–25.
• He went blind in 1908, at 53.
• He lost his first wife when he was 33 and his second when he was 45.
• He was once wrongly thought to be Indigenous.
• The columnist "Felix" (Tom Horan) supported him.

Cricket career (Cricket Country):

• He played his early cricket at Daylesford.
• He became curator at Richmond Cricket Club in 1880.
• He scored 280 for Richmond against St Kilda in February 1882, then the highest score in the colony.
• He played his only Test for Australia against England at the MCG in January 1885, when the regular team was on strike over pay. He took the wickets of Arthur Shrewsbury and Billy Barnes.
• In first-class cricket he made 591 runs and took 31 wickets in 20 matches.
• He umpired Tasmania v Victoria matches in the 1890s.
• He died at Moubray Street, Albert Park, on 20 September 1931.

The same article names his mother as "Elizabeth Ann", born in Launceston, and his grandparents as George Phipps "from St. Kitts" and Ann Peney, "a Bengali servant girl".

Chapter 15 — Godfrey John "Goody" MacDonald (1857–1942)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: their great-great-grandfather, on their mother's side. He was the father of Jeanette Belinda McDonald (Chapter 22).

Tree says: Godfrey John "Goody" MacDonald was born on 26 May 1857 at Fryers Creek, on the Castlemaine goldfields, the son of Norman Hume McDonald and Johan Munro (Chapter 8). He was named after his grandfather Godfrey McDonald of Skye (1798–1841). He married Jessie May Stokend Isbister in 1885 at Fitzroy; she died in 1895. He then married Jessie May McPherson (1875–1952) in 1897 at Fitzroy. The tree also links him to an Emma Palmer (b. 1860), with a son Richard Henry Palmer (b. 1880). He had sixteen children, among them Jeanette Belinda (b. 1901). He died on 18 December 1942 at The Esplanade, Altona.

Item 1 — Portrait in Highland dress, c. 1900–1920

Identified by the family as Goody MacDonald. He wears a Glengarry cap, a doublet with diamond-shaped buttons, a plaid fastened with a large brooch and a horsehair sporran, with two medals on clasp bars. If the photo dates from c. 1900–1920, he would have been in his forties to early sixties. The Highland dress fits his Skye and Sutherland ancestry, and suggests he was a member of a Scottish volunteer regiment, a pipe band or a Caledonian society in Melbourne.

To check: what the two medals are, which would show whether he served (for example with the Victorian Scottish Regiment, formed in 1898) or won them at Highland gatherings; whether Trove mentions him at Caledonian Society or Footscray Highland events; and when and where the photo was taken. Also, the tree lists some children under both of his first two wives, and Alexander (1894) twice, so his children need sorting out.

Chapter 16 — Jane Howarth (née Lilley) (1864–1953)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: their great-great-grandmother, on their mother's side. Jane was the mother of Eli John Howarth.

Tree says: born 6 Mar 1864, Staffordshire Reef, Victoria; daughter of William Walter Lilley and Rosina Dyer; married Eli James Howarth on 11 Apr 1887 at Fitzroy North; eleven children (1888–1908); died 18 Jul 1953, Caulfield, Victoria.

Item 1 — Portrait in later life (from the family album)

The album label reads: "Jane Howarth (nee Lilley) Born at Staffordshire Reef, Vic. 1864 – 1953". This matches the tree.

A second likeness, probably Jane cropped from the Howarth family group of c. 1909, is in the Gallery.

Chapter 17 — Frederick William Jukes (1861–1932) and Rosey Fisher (1864–1943)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: Frederick and Rosey are their great-great-grandparents, on their father's (Jukes) side.

Tree says: Frederick was born on 12 June 1861 at Fawkner, the youngest son of John Jukes and Harriett Cromwell. Rosey Fisher was born in September 1864 at Supply River, near George Town, Tasmania. They married in 1883; the tree gives the place as "Yarraville" and marks it as uncertain.

Their children were:

• Charles Frederick William (1885, Campbellfield)
• Albert Thomas (1887)
• Edward "Ted" James (1888)
• William Frederick (1891)
• Ernest Leslie (1894, Campbellfield)
• Ethel Rose (1900)

Frederick died at Coburg in June 1932 and Rosey in Melbourne in October 1943, aged 79. Campbellfield, Fawkner and Coburg sit next to each other on Melbourne's northern edge. The family stayed in that district for four generations.

Chapter 18 — Mary Alice Heither (1865–1949) and William Joseph Patrick Power (1863–1942)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: Mary Alice and William are their great-great-grandparents, on their mother's side. They were the parents of Olive Power.

Tree says: Mary Alice was born on 15 November 1865 at Daylesford, the daughter of Matthew Heither and Frances McGuinness. William Joseph Patrick Power was born on 19 July 1863 in Queensland, the son of William Power and Jane Dalton. They married in Melbourne in 1898, though their first son, Victor Charles, was born in October 1897.

Their children were:

• Victor Charles (1897)
• Bernard Anslow (1900, died as an infant)
• David William (1903)
• Olive Muriel (31 December 1905, Fitzroy North)
• Jack (1909)

William died on 12 May 1942 at 5 Highett Place, Fitzroy, and Mary Alice at Fitzroy in 1949. Olive Muriel married Eli John Howarth (1905–1985). She died at Clunes on 20 May 1993.

Chapter 19 — Eli James Howarth (1866–1948)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: their great-great-grandfather, on their mother's side. Eli James was the father of Eli John Howarth.

Tree says: born abt 1866, Ballarat, Victoria; son of Eli James Howarth (1830–1893, from Littleborough, Lancashire) and Elizabeth Bradbury (1845–1929, from Oldham); married Jane Lilley 11 Apr 1887, Fitzroy North; died 26 Jul 1948, Campbellfield, Victoria.

Item 1 — Large family group, probably the Howarth family c. 1909–10

The photo shows 14 people: the parents seated in the centre, six young adults standing behind, and six children in front, including two toddlers. The clothes and hairstyles suggest roughly 1905–1912.

Why it is probably the Howarths: it was sent with the Howarth album material, and it fits the family's size and ages. In 1909–10 their surviving children ran from about 20 (Elsie May, b. 1889) down to two toddlers (Thomas William Lilley, b. 1907, and John, b. 1908). Jane Lilley Howarth (d. 1905) would already be gone.

Close-ups of the father, the mother and a boy in a lace collar from this photograph are in the Gallery.

To check: is there a caption or date on the back of the original? Who is the moustached young man at back right — a son or a son-in-law? Name each person, back row left to right.

Chapter 20 — Ernest Leslie Jukes (1894–1974) and Bertha Hall (1892–1963)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: Ernest and Bertha are their great-grandparents, on their father's side. They were the parents of Arthur Jukes.

Tree says: Ernest was born on 1 October 1894 at Campbellfield, the son of Frederick William Jukes and Rosey Fisher. Bertha was born on 15 March 1892 in Manchester, the daughter of Joseph Hall (about 1861 Manchester – 1928 Hotham) and Margret. Her grandparents were Charles Hall and Ann Gough, of Whitechapel.

The 1901 census shows Bertha as a daughter of the household in North Manchester. The family left Liverpool for Australia on 7 December 1907, when she was 15.

Ernest and Bertha married in Victoria in 1918 and lived at Broadmeadows by 1919 (13 Mary Street). Their children were:

• Arthur (1919)
• Ivy Rose (1920)
• Eunice Bertha, who died on 28 March 1921 aged 3 months
• Nellie (1923)
• Rupert Ernest (1924)

Eunice has a memorial at Scots Church, Fawkner. Bertha died at Parkville on 22 September 1963, and Ernest at Brunswick on 28 July 1974, aged 79.

To check: the 1907 passenger list, which will show the ship and whether the whole Hall family travelled together. Eunice's death date also needs settling: 28 March or 1 April 1921.

Chapter 21 — George Ernest Harker (1894–1977) and Mary Elizabeth Hazeldene McKay (1892–1951)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: George and Mary are their great-grandparents, on their father's side. They were the parents of Dulcie Harker.

Tree says: George was born at Dandenong in 1894, the son of Thomas Harker and Catherine Griffiths. He enlisted in the AIF in 1915, as did his brother William (the tree links his record in the AIF Project, UNSW Canberra). His brother Robert was killed in France in 1916.

Mary Elizabeth Hazeldene McKay was born at Cranbourne in 1892. Her father was John McKay (1863–1947, Lang Lang) and her mother Charlotte Anne Orchard. John was the son of James Hall McKay (1822 Rogart, Sutherland – 1902 Cranbourne) and Flora Mathewina Paton MacKay, of Durness. Like the Munros, this is a Sutherland family from the far north of Scotland.

George and Mary married in 1920; the tree has the wedding record. Their twins, Dulcie Hazel and Mavis Helen, were born on 12 and 13 December 1920 at Yannathan, a dairying district near Lang Lang in South Gippsland. Mary died at Warragul in 1951 and George at Koo Wee Rup on 8 November 1977.

George's war service and Military Medal: George enlisted on 6 December 1915, a farmer aged 21 from Yallock, and sailed on HMAT Warilda on 8 February 1916 with the 9th Reinforcements to the 24th Battalion. He served on the Western Front, rose to corporal, and won the Military Medal for his work as a scout at Ville-sur-Ancre (19 May 1918) and in a raid at Buire (14 June 1918); the citation says he "knows no fear" (Commonwealth Gazette, 17 June 1919). He came home on 13 April 1919, nearly three years after his brother Robert was killed at Fromelles. (Source: AIF Project.)

Chapter 22 — William Charles Kendrick (1897–1969) and Jeanette Belinda McDonald (1901–1978)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: William and Jeanette are their great-grandparents, on their mother's side. They were the parents of Hazel May Kendrick.

Tree says: William Charles Kendrick was born about 1897 at Waverley, New South Wales, the son of George Samuel Kendrick (1868 Ballarat East – 1901 Balmain North) and Ada Elizabeth Gregory. George Samuel's parents were Hervey Henry Kendrick (1827 Enfield, Middlesex – 1897) and Catherine Cassandra Mary Frances Green, born 1837 at Kilmarnock. They married in Victoria in 1861.

William married Jeanette Belinda McDonald (1901–1978), granddaughter of Norman Hume McDonald and Johan Munro. Their daughter Hazel May Kendrick was born in Melbourne on 26 March 1928 and married Thomas Alfred Howarth (1926–2010). Hazel died at Creswick on 21 June 2009. Hazel and Thomas were Patricia Howarth's parents.

Worth noting: Hervey Henry Kendrick was born at Enfield, the same town as George Phipps the saddler (see George Phipps of Enfield). It is a coincidence to keep in mind, not evidence of a link.

Chapter 23 — Arthur Jukes (1919–2007) and Dulcie Hazel Harker (1920–2006)

Relationship to Matt and Scott: their grandparents, on their father's side.

Tree says: Arthur was born in 1919 at Fawkner, the son of Ernest Leslie Jukes and Bertha Hall. Dulcie Hazel Harker was born on 12 December 1920 at Yannathan, a twin, the daughter of George Ernest Harker and Mary McKay. They married at Yannathan on 24 March 1948 and were living at Lalor, Broadmeadows, in 1954.

Their son is David George Ernest Jukes (b. 1952), father of Matthew Amos Jukes. David's middle names come from both grandfathers, George Ernest Harker and Ernest Leslie Jukes.

Dulcie died in Melbourne on 3 March 2006 and was buried at Campbellfield. Arthur died at Fawkner on 31 May 2007.

Chapter 24 — Atlas Arthur Felix Jukes (2024)

Atlas was born with a hole in his heart and a coarctation of his aorta. When only 8 weeks old he underwent a 6 hour open heart surgery that resolved the artery problem and repaired almost all of the hole in his heart. He made a full recovery

The Howarth family album page

This two-page spread from a family album (maroon pages, typed labels) has portraits of Rosina Lilley and Jane Howarth and a four-generation descent from Eli James Howarth and Elizabeth Bradbury. It adds a whole generation of grandchildren and great-grandchildren that the tree doesn't yet hold.

Transcription

Generation 1: Eli James Howarth 1839 — Elizabeth Bradbury 1845

Generation 2: Eli James Howarth m. Jane Lilley 1864

Generation 3 — children of Eli James and Jane:

Generation 4 — children of Eli John Howarth and Olive Muriel Power, with their spouses and children:

Adds to the tree: John David Howarth (b. 1924) is probably the "Jack Howarth, abt 1926" who appears twice in the tree. Janet Lorraine Howarth (1944) and the spouses Ruby Bamford, John Shelley, Aileen Ryder and Alexis Licht are new. So are all the great-grandchildren except Patricia (1952), who married into the Jukes family.

Many of generation 4 and their children are probably living. Keep them private in any shared version of the tree.

Open questions and discrepancies

The list of discrepancies (places where the records disagree, or something is still unproven) is kept on the Library and resources page. Items can be added there, and marked as resolved once they have been dealt with.

New leads from the family tree (added September 2026)

• John Jukes (1800): get Tasmanian Archives CON33/1/67 for his trial, ship and arrival, and find the source of the "early pioneer" item.
• George Barclay Phipps: Old Bailey trial t18160710-125 checked (October 2026): a very strong, though not definitive, match with the tree's George. Still to weigh his native place, "Boston", against the St Kitts and Barbados stories, and look in Life of Captain Andrew Barclay of Cambock for any mention of him.
• James Joseph McGinnis: confirm the two convict profiles (McGinnis and McGuiness) are the same man, and find a source for the Antigua birthplace.
• Frances McGuinness: sort out the order of her four partners from the Victorian marriage index.
• Robert Herd Harker (d. Fromelles, 20 July 1916): found — 31st Battalion, buried at Rue-Petillon Military Cemetery (see Chapter 13). Still to check: his birth year (1887 or 1893).
• Norman Hume McDonald: find the Yarraville train accident of January 1885 on Trove, and his 1854 ship in the Highland and Island Emigration Society registers.
• Bertha Hall: find the passenger list for the Liverpool departure of 7 December 1907.
• Harker of Swaledale: check the links before 1807 in the Grinton and Muker registers.
• Kidney line of Barbados: treat as unproven. The Liberia entry for Mary Hollinshead is an error.

Areas of further research

This section gathers the searches still to be made and the guesses and conjectures put forward in this scrapbook that are not yet proven. Treat everything here as a lead, not a fact.

Newspaper searches to try on Trove

Trove (trove.nla.gov.au) blocks automated searching, so these need to be done by hand in a browser:

• Goody MacDonald's death notice, December 1942: try the Argus and Age for 19–21 December 1942, and the Williamstown Chronicle for Altona. Search "McDonald Altona" and "Goody McDonald".
• "Yarraville accident", January 1885: the train accident involving Norman Hume McDonald on 3 January 1885, in the Argus and the Footscray Independent; also "inquest Footscray" for the event of 14 January 1885.
• Thomas Harker's obituary, 1922: try the Dandenong Advertiser, Koo-wee-rup Sun and Lang Lang Guardian; also Catherine Harker's death in 1932, and "Harker Yallock" for 1916 casualty notices and George's Military Medal.
• "Jukes" with Hadfield, Fawkner or Campbellfield, 1860s–1890, for John Jukes's purchase of the Fawkner estate and his death in 1890.

Conjectures to test

• Norman Hume McDonald's ship, 1854: the most likely is the Edward Johnstone, which left Liverpool on 17 June 1854 with 354 Highlanders from Skye, Raasay and Coll and reached Portland on 3 September 1854. The Hornet (Liverpool to Geelong, 29 July 1854) is also possible, since Geelong was the route to the goldfields where Goody was born in 1857. Check the Highland and Island Emigration Society registers on ScotlandsPeople and the PROV Assisted Immigrants Index.
• John Jukes the convict: of the two Birmingham-area convicts named John Jukes, the one tried at Birmingham Quarter Sessions who reached Van Diemen's Land on the Theresa on 3 July 1845 fits the tree's CON33 reference better than the Earl St Vincent man of 1826. Neither is proven; the Tasmanian conduct record (CON33) and description list would give his age and birthplace.
• Goody MacDonald's medals and Highland dress: perhaps from the Victorian Scottish Regiment (raised 1898), a pipe band or Highland games prizes. A history of the Footscray City Highland Pipe Band is held at the Living Museum of the West, Melbourne.
• A possible McDonald relative: Donald Munroe McDonald of 184 Hyde Street, Footscray (5th Battalion AIF, enlisted 1914), son of George Alexander McDonald. The middle name "Munroe" may point to Johan Munro, which would make George a brother of Goody. Unverified (AIF Project).
• A possible Jukes relative: Albert Leopold Jukes (born Coburg about 1894, son of Henry and Mary Ellen Jukes of 44 Munro Street, Coburg), a driver in the 3rd Divisional Train 1916–1919, buried at Fawkner Memorial Park. He may be a cousin of Ernest Leslie Jukes (AIF Project).
• Ernest Leslie Jukes: no overseas AIF service was found. He may have enlisted without going overseas; check NAA series B2455 for "JUKES E L".
• Robert Herd Harker's first burial: the "Eaton Hall Cemetery" named in his record is probably an early battlefield burial ground whose graves were later moved to Rue-Petillon. His birth year (about 1887 or 1893) is also unsettled.
• The Howarth soldier photographs: Benjamin George Howarth (enlisted at 18 in 1915) is the best fit for the young soldier in the early-war peaked cap. Benjamin and James Walter both came home early, which may mean wounds; one of them could be the older seated soldier with the leg brace. As no Howarth served as a corporal, the corporal in that photo is probably not a family member. Their NAA service files would settle this.
• The Howarth family group (c. 1909–10): identified as the Howarths only by provenance and by matching the family's size and ages; the crops of the father, mother and boy are identified on the same basis.
• Sam Morris and "Jean", 1931: the woman in the photo is probably his daughter-in-law Margaret Ann (Reta) Morris, not Jean Ukermunder, who died in 1923.
• Isaac Morris's photograph: the full group photo it was cropped from may come from Ian Woodward's book Sam Morris (2009).
• George Barclay Phipps and Captain Andrew Barclay: his middle name and his assignment to Barclay suggest a real family connection. The convict records give his native place as "Boston", while family tradition says St Kitts and the tree says Barbados.
• Kendrick and Phipps in Enfield: Hervey Henry Kendrick and George Phipps the saddler both came from Enfield, Middlesex — a coincidence to keep in mind, not evidence of a link.
