CHEW FAMILY OF MOLONG, NSW, AUSTRALIA
I am researching Thomas & Jane CHEW & family that arrived in Australia in 1857 from England and settled in Molong NSW. Their children were:
Larniah CHEW who married Charles MAY;
Georgina who married Samuel HARDY;
Emily Jane who married Thomas RING;
Henry A who married Rose Alice PEARS.
Thomas CHEW attempted to murder his wife Jane and spent 3 years in Parramatta gaol.
Jane CHEW continued to have children with Henry ASHBY; Eliza A ASHBY; William HAC ASHBY & John ASHBY;
and then she had Harry; Mary; Richard AC & George FA. (Father unknown for last 4). Births registered under either CHEW, ASHBY, LUCAS, or a combination of all three.
Emily Jane RING (nee CHEW) adopted Frank HARDY later known as Frank RING.
The ASHBY & RING families moved to the Peak Hill & Tomingley areas of NSW.
Would be pleased to hear from anyone with information for any of the above.
