Submitter: Christine Fraser ([email protected] )
Date: 04 Apr 1999

Rudolph Cheney from Gympie, Queensland (I think). Mary Hayden wife of the above. Married 1989. I know they had a son in Gympie on the 19.02.1899 (my grandfather). I do not know when they moved to Victoria, but William Henry Cheney - my grandfather was married on the 23.02.1923(?) to Minna Matilda Guinane at St. Anthony's Church, Fairfield. John Fraser (other grandfather). Born - Lanark, Scotland came to Australia sometime around 1893/95 when he would have been around 14 years old, unfortunately I do not know when he was born only a rough approximation. I think he probably arrived in Queensland because that seems to be the landing place around that time. I know he lived in Queensland for approx. 20 years and then moved to Victoria and was married there in 1915 to Christiana Pollard. He lived here for 32 years before he died, unfortunately all my father's papers have granddad's age listed differently. I hope someone out there can help me.
