For “Married” of Henry Winwood & Sarah Jane Watson

Henry Winwood, b. 1855-11-02 Sydney, New South Wales, Australia; d. 1932-09-24 Toowoomba, Queensland, Australia. Spouses: Mary Jane Peters (b. 1856 St Germans, Cornwall; d. 1907-11-02 Esk, Queensland), married 1903-06-06, Queensland, Australia; Louisa Peters (b. 1869-04; d. 1943-02 Esk), married 1909-12-23, Queensland, Australia. Parents: Henry Winwood (1829-1906, d. Esk) and Mary Ann Padgett (d. 1878 Esk).

Identity fixed by an exact match on both birth date and place and on the death date with our person #8173. Cited to show that 6 JUN 1903 is his marriage to Mary Jane Peters, not to Sarah Jane Watson (who died 13 OCT 1901), and therefore does not belong on family 2504.

For “Married” 27 JUL 1866 of Wilhelm Mathaus Wacker & Friederike Bauer

Identity secure: birth and death dates and places match person #41549 exactly, and the wife's dates match #41550 exactly. 1866 is also the only date consistent with children born from 1867 and with the bride living at Penzlin, Mecklenburg in 1867.

Identity is secure: birth date/place, death date/place, the wife's dates and death place, and the second wife (Grossmann-60) all match our records exactly. Cited only for the century digit - our own event already held 2 AUG and Hoffnungsthal.

Identity confirmed on four exact dates (both spouses' births and deaths) plus both of her parents, who are our #69640 and #69641.

For “Born” 1841 of Amelia Baker

Amelia Baker was born on March 31, 1841 in East Coker, Somerset, England. Her parents were [[Baker-6947|George Baker]] (~1811 - ) and [[Baker-6948|Mary Baker]] (~1810 - ).

WikiTree profile Baker-6946, read via the API 2026-09-07 (wiki markup left as it stands). CONFIRMED where it matters: the Kate's assisted-immigrant list, now cited on this event, independently gives Amelia's place of origin as East Coker, Somerset, her age as 13 in November 1854, and the same household of George, Mary, Eliza and Susan. Her father is now linked from her own death registration. What remains WikiTree-only is the precise birth date of 31 March 1841 and the mother's given name Mary as a birth-family fact rather than a passenger-list entry; the 1851 census of East Coker (HO107/1929 f.138 p.19) has still not been read directly.

He was transported on the "Marquis of Wellington" (sometimes improperly "Lord Wellington") from London 1st Sep 1814 to NSW 27th Jan 1815 via Madeira and Rio.

Compiled profile quoting the Cambridge Chronicle and Journal of 25 February 1814 ('John Barber, for stealing a bay mare, the property of Mr R. Burgess, of Wainfleet: - were both capitally convicted, and received sentence of death, but were afterwards reprieved') and the 1817-1828 NSW musters. This is the arrival the 1947 obituary garbles as 'Mrs. Nelson's grandfather came to Australia with Governor Macquarie': Macquarie landed in December 1809, five years before John Barber, though the whole of his sentence was served under Macquarie's governorship.

Joseph (4) and William (2.5)') and the 1828 census household. Her surname is spelt Wyer, Dwyer, Wylde, Wyld and Wire across those records; her daughter Louisa's 1902 death certificate gives 'Jane Dwyer'.

'''Death ''' 9 September 1842, burial 12 September 1842 in Narrellan parish by Thos. Hassell: Sarah Field, Abode Kenwick, 27 yrs, labourer's wife.

WikiTree profile Watson-26239, biography read through the API 2026-09-08 and quoted as the wiki markup stands. This is the ONLY evidence the tree has for her death and it is a compiled tree, so quality 1 - but the contributor is quoting a register, giving the abode (Kenwick), the age (27), the description (labourer's wife) and the officiating minister (the Rev. Thomas Hassall of Cobbitty), and their Sources section adds 'Death of Sarah Field: NSW BDM D: FIELD SARAH 999_1842 V1842999 26B AGE 27 (reel 5007)'. Their own research note observes that Kenwick does not appear on maps of Cobbitty and Narellan. The NSW BDM early church-register row and the Narellan St Thomas burial register both need reading; until then this citation stands alone and is weak. Corroboration that the family WAS in the Camden district then: their daughter Mary Elizabeth was born 'at the Cowpastures, Camden district, on 3rd September, 1840' (The Methodist, 5 January 1924).

So the day and month are unsupported and the birth date on the record stays ABT 1786.
