Hi,

Can't help with solid details but you might want to check Hoxham. I've never heard of that place, but there is a Hexham, which is half way between Newcastle and Maitland, and next door to Raymond Terrace.

Cheers,
Michelle

NSW BMD most likely recorded Hoxham instead of Hexham, now that you have pointed it out. I will amend.
Thanks,

You might also want to check out this Flickr site:

There are photos of many of the BDM registers of Christ Church Cathedral. You might find your events in there.

It isn't indexed, so it might be a case of scrolling through.

Cheers,

Hi,

I may be able to help you out if you still need it. Alfred Martin STEEL, Lucy Jane's brother is on the family tree I'm researching. I have some details on the family back to lucy's GF James STEEL and GM Mary Greenwell, as well as some new info I am still confirming which takes the line back another 4G's to Michael STEEL born abt 1685.

Cheers,

Cheers,
Marlin
