Williamson Family

I'm attaching a copy of a page from the Rates Evaluation Book which covers the period 1884-1898.  It is for an area called Lisbane in the Parish of Eglish and it looks like the name is Blackwood Williamson.

Also attaching a transcript of Blackwood Williamson's Will - not known when he died but his Will was probated in 1919.

 

After leaving bequests to two cousins - Charles and Jane Williamson you will see that the remainder is left to the children of his brothers James and Joseph.

My great grandfather was James Blackwood Williamson and his brother was Simpson Morrison Williamson. There were other brothers Gordon, Robert and Harry. Plus 3 sisters Sarah, Mattie and Elizabeth. Their parents were James and Hannah.  My mother has been researching the family tree and can certainly help you as she has dates, marriages etc and had written a little book with some of history as to when and how they all settled here at Warge Rock, Peak Hill Australia. if you are interested please contact me and I can pass on their details. Hope this helps!! Fiona
