JULIAN IN NLA NEWSPAPERS

JULIAN IS ANOTHER LINE OF THE FAMILY about which  know almost nothing. I read of a JOHN JULIAN who was a chief in Canada. I liked the sound of that. Margaret Booth has contacted me today and she has the lineage of our JULIANS. We are listed as JULIEN on NSW BDMS but my family records are JULIAN. MARTHA JULIAN is my GREAT GRANDMOTHER. She married THOMAS CRAIG and their daughter ELIZABETH was my father’s mother.

That’s my Grandmother on my Father’s side. Elizabeth Craig – daughter of Martha Julian Craig. The girl is DORIS SANDERS and the boy is CLYDE SANDERS – my Aunt and Uncle.

STILL SEEKING THE FAMILY OF MARTHA JULIAN

WHO BECAME MARTHA CRAIG WHEN SHE MARRIED THOMAS ON THE MACLEAY RIVER IN 1877

NSW BDMS lead me to think she was born in 1856 and died in 1932.  The other indicator is that her parents were perhaps John and Elizabeth JULIEN but this is still up for grabs.  JULIANS JULIENS WHERE ARE YOU ?

POSSIBLE THREADS – JULIAN

THE ONLY CONNECTION KNOWN AT THIS TIME IS THE SURNAME JULIAN 

 

Rosanna Abrahams

Rosanna was the illegitimate daughter of Esther Abrahams and an unknown father. Esther used the surname ‘Julian’ at times during her life and some historians speculate that he was her daughter’s father or that ‘Julian’ was Esther’s mother’s maiden name. It is also speculated that he was a member of the Aristocratic Spanish family Julian. None of this speculation has been proven to be true.

At the time of Esther’s conviction for stealing 24 yards of lace she was two months pregnant with her daughter Rosanna, born in Newgate prison while awaiting transportation to NSW. When the first fleet departed in May 1787 Rosanna was two months old. Source. Newspaper clipping from ‘Reflections’ May-July 2002, page 30. She was the youngset passenger on the first fleet. Esther became the companion of Major George Johnston eventually marrying him on 11 Nov 1814 in St. John’s, Parramatta.
