Message Board Post:
Until recently, my family was lead to believe that after immigrating/comming to Australia, my grandfather lived in an orphanage.
We have found out this is not the case. The only information we have is the following...
His mothers name was Abigale Church. They came over to Australia when my grandfather was approx five years old, which would have been 1925. We believe she may have had an affair with a married man or had a forbidden love affair and fell pregnant with my grandfather. So back in those times it was of course thought to be shamful being a single mum.
So they shipped them both off to Australia with Abigale's sister Elizabeth Maude Church who had married before coming to Australia, however we are unsure of her married name, we do know that her husbands name was Adrian. We understand they lived in Melbourne all together and Abigale passed on shortly after coming to Australia leaving my grandfather to live with his Aunt and Uncle.
We also believe that my grandfathers name is William and was apprently a Draftsman, we do not know his surname as my grandfather got his mothers surname. We also belive that my grandfather has two half brothers. Again unsure of any names.
If anyone can help or has any further questions, please, please email me at jdunn8 @ hotmail.com
Thank you

Message Board Post:
My GG Grandmother was Julia Ann Coolidge, born 3 Apr 1854 in Sherborn, MA and died 3 Feb 1927 in Spencer, MA. Her mother died when she was only five days old. Her mother's maiden name was Julia Ann Church. The following is an excerpt from a family narrative made by a relative. He was the third youngest son of Julia Ann Coolidge, my GG Grandmother:
"Perhaps the most seemingly complicated relationship existed in Mother's immediate family circle, stemming from the fact that Grandfather Lowell Coolidge married three times and begat children with each matrimonial venture. While this might result in some confusion, it is really quite simply explained.
Our Grandmother Coolidge was Julia Ann Church before her marriage to Grandfather Coolidge in 1847. We know almost nothing about her, now, for she died in 1854, at twenty-eight, five days after the birth of our mother, her second child. It is said that her death was caused from a throat infection, complicated, no doubt, by the after effects of childbirth. I have a daguerreotype picture of her which shows a sweet, refined face, and I can well believe, a like disposition. I think it fair to judge this to be so when I reflect on the same characteristics in our mother's personality.
I wish we knew more about Julia Ann Church - her antecedents, and the environment of her girlhood. She undoubtedly descended from one of the emigrants of that name who settled about the Boston area in the 1630's. One day I may discover a clue that will establish her place in the genealogy of our family. At present, the Church line is the only one that is missing.
We do know that she had a brother, Andrew Jackson Church, who married Eleanor Maria Breck. ("Whom we all called, Aunt Ellen). They lived in a cottage adjacent to the Coolidge homestead. The only officially known facts of which I have knowledge is contained in the burial records of Pine Hill Cemetery, Sherborn.
Julia Ann bore Lowell Coolidge two children, Emma Elizabeth, who married Jerry Long of Holliston, and our mother; neither of whom were old enough to remember her."
I don't think my relative ever found out the genealogy of Julia Ann Church before he died in the 1970's. Please help me find out who her antecedents were, etc.
Here is some extra info:
Julia Ann Chruch was born 24 Jan 1826. The author of the above excerpt stated that she was born in Boston, but I found something that said she was born in Sherborn. She married Lowell Coolidge 5 May 1847 in Methuen, MA, and died 8 Apr 1854 in Sherborn, MA, having given birth to two daughters.
Julia Ann Coolidge married Joseph Hooper Blanchard 1 Aug 1877 in Sherborn. He was born 20 Jul 1856 in Sherborn and died 14 Jun 1928 in Spencer.
Thank you for any info that you can give me.
Sincerely,
Daniel

As a youth, he joined the Sea Scouts in San Francisco, achieving the rank of
Eagle Scout. He served in the Merchant Marine in the Pacific Theater during
World War II, and in the US Coast Guard during the Korean War. Complications
of diabetes caused his death Friday at Bodega Bay. He was 78. ``He had a
good sense of humor,'' said his daughter, Shirley Church of Bodega Bay. ``He
liked to laugh and joke with people. He got along with just about
everybody.'' Born in 1926 at his grandparents' ranch at the foot of Mount
Hood in Oregon, he moved to San Francisco with his family during his early
years. In 1954, he settled in Bodega Bay, where he became a member and
officer of the Bodega Bay Volunte!

naval history. Westward expansion was a special interest of his, and he was
especially fond of the theories and adventures of Thor Heyerdahl, a
Norwegian ethnologist and author who postulated that the Indians of South
America could have populated the islands of Polynesia. Other old salts also
found favor with Church. ``Whenever The Press Democrat ran a story about Sir
Francis Drake,'' said his daughter, ``he read every word. He did the
newspaper's crossword puzzle every morning at breakfast.'' He also collected
coins and stamps, had an interest in genealogy, and doted on his
grandchildren. He outlived his wife of 37 years, Sarah Cooley Church. In
addition to his daughter, Shirley, he is survived by three other daughters,
Patricia Mahoney of Alameda; Betty Hall of Glendora and Sandy Sory of
Greeley, Colo.; and by five grandchildren.

i hope this message posting doesnt get taken down. please copy it just in case, think about emailing it to a friend for their opinion. especially those interested in family trees and genealogy. i came across something quite by acccident. to begin with it gave me nightmares, but i got my head round it all now. i can make sense of it.
if you have your tree as full as possible, add the dates to a one year diary david. i am in no doubt whatsoever you will find what i found. looking into the past like this, it isnt scary, or wierd. i think we should all know where we come from. i didnt have a clue what i was doing when i started to add all those dates in the diary. its groundbreaking definately. if science can show you when you pass into your next life using dna, i can show you how to find where you re-appear. using a pen and paper. dna will never tell you that. how can science study something not yet born. knowing when you pass into your next life has its advantages. i dont have to spend my life paying into a pension i wont cash. i only need to buy one lot of life insurance. i know the year. i know my children will live much longer than my 35 years. them knowing theid dad discovered this, is what ensures they never need worry about money ever. i can prove re incarnation. i can prove we all pass thru the sex!
es, and the colours. i can prove if you do something bad, it comes back at you twice as bad. to someone you cherish on the anniversary. ive spent the last 3 years, since 911 trying to figure out what it all means. im now at a point where i know. i can teach what ive learnt. lesson one, is add your dates to a one year diary. if you did it off your own back, this would take you 3 years maybe more to figure out. i know what you will find come the end of those 3 years, i can teach my findings in a few weeks.
in 1996, my dad gave me a copy of our family tree. sadly he passed away that year. in 2000, i bought my first pc and began transferring all my information onto it. adding the dates in the diary was meant to make the job quicker. the book ive written accompanies the akiens family tree. as many stories about each person in our history. i will be more than happy to forward a copy on to you. thousands of true stories with photos and document proof. i hope to finance publishing my book on a website online. for free. how can you charge people, when this book will show the world how to find their lost loved ones. i can take the whole worlds fear of death and the sadness of death away for good. if you could pinpoint exactly who ad what you did in say 1750, would you want to know..? that person you were in 1750, died. just like you will and i will. you got back up a fair few times since, and you will again. so long as you dont kill anyone. your soul hits the end of the road. when you!
read of all the events that hapened to the akiens, how colourful our story is, you`ll understand much better. my book will be an instant hit all over the world. the story of the akiens, is as close to out of this world as our name would suggest. i could paste all the dates i have from my tree on here, but theyre colour coded and that wont show up in this text. the book ive written is far too big to email, and would take too long to break it up into emailable sections. if you would like a copy, please let me know how you would like it. printed or on disk. i wouldnt recommend reading this book on screen. once you start you wont be able to stop, and it will give you headaches. it gave me enough writing it nonstop the last 3 years. what you find on this website is about 1% of the finished book. which doesnt actually finish, until i pass away. then my kids will carry it on. then their kids will and so on. the more families that begin to do this, the better their kids will turn !
out as adults. this will geive our kids a greater sense of pride in wh
o they are, because they know exactly where they come from. if you want me to give you an example of real live de ja vu, spread out missing a few generations, this is just one example. in 1913, my great uncle jesse fell from a very tall chimney. he was an 18 year old steeplejack. the wind took him frrom the top of a chimney, cracked halfway up by a bolt of lightening. as he came over the side of the chimney, he managed to get both his feet into the wall. he kicked out of it instinctively, into the wind. turning himself in midair, hoping to be able to dive further out into a tree, missing the boiler house roofs below. he didnt find a soft option that day. he was killed. i was born with a weak chest, and when i dream im falling, my arms are wide, chest proud. the ground never comes. one final thought to what helped me in the beginning, what gotr my attention most of all the dates i came across, was january 23rd. my birthday, and my twins birthday. one perfect little boy and on!
e perfect litle girl. i know already ive been reborn. when i ship out, i know thats where ive already woke back up. they dont know it yet. neither does my mum , sis, or my bros. you read this before they do. if i tried to tell them what id found, theyd be callin in the white coats. i need to be tellin strangers this news online, its the fastest way to spead the news all over the world isnt it. im not sad im not going to live long, i know when, and i have to prepare my family. when they understand no one ever really dies, they wont be sad either. ideally, id like them to find out before its too late. then we can all laugh about it as i die. beats all that sadness.
if you o this how i have, when you find yourself with 3 possible relatives you come across, the dates will make it easy, the moire you have. the more dates you have, the more able you are to discount the wrong 2. it turns it into a multiple choice instead of a blind alley, that could take you months out of the way down a wrong turn.
i went mad trying to figure all this out , i even spent time in an institution because of it. that didnt change any of the dates id found. i had to carry on in secret without my family knowing. they know im writing a book about the family, but they havent got a clue of the content. they all think im grieving for my dad still. i got over dad a long while ago. if youre still reading this at this point i would recommend you read my book now. that institution could have a bed with your name on it if you dont read it. this finding is only one finding of thousands. its not the best bit of the book by a long way. or the most mind blowing. the stuff in here is enough to send anyone up the wall. and even off it, like great uncle jesse. i wasnt there, but i know how jesse came down. in 1996, when my dad lay dying slowly of bone cancer, he laughed his way through it believe it or not. to make it easier for us his kids. i had twins born at 38 weeks in 1996. 38 weeks later, dad passed aw!
ay in front of me. from the happiest man alive to the saddest in just 38 weeks. another funny thing i found in the dates.
on september 4th 1738, thomas akines was born. a twin. richard his brother died at 4 1/2 years old. the surving twin, my ggggggranddad, went on to name his first son after his lost brother. the son richard, changed our name from akines to akiens. that was the last time our name changed. thomas akiens born 1738, died on april 18th 1838. my dad passeed into his next life on september 4th, laurence akiens. LOL to his friends. that was dad all over. he laughed his whole life, even as a 5 year old boy stood on broken chimney tops. like jesse did that age. the last time our name changed, a twin changed it. i have twins born on my own birthday. what does akiens change to alphabetically...? my oldest daughter, was born on april 18th, lauren, named after my dad. the equasion roughly translated into lamens, is thomas was born the date dad died, and died the date lauren was born. they were just as much fated to be born on those dates as thomas was in 1738. in short, we`re not in contro!
l of our own destinies, because we dont know much destiny we have in this world. if we knew, we could plan it better. we can even plan the next one better, if everyone knows about it. when realisation hits the world re incarnation takes you through the colours, it ends racism.
its taken 3 years of round the clock working, on my pc, in graveyards, public records offices, archives. in 1996, my dad gave me a copy of our family tree. very sadly he passed away the year we began re writing our story. dad wanted to add as many stories to each name, because he could see the same i as i do, they were worth more than just a few dates and a name on one line. they were people who went through a lot for us. like we do our great great grandchildren we maybe wont ever see. i carried on after he died and now its ready. its free dont worry, but i dont have many copies. its too big s file to email. disk by snailmails the only realistic way to send it. 300mb is the size of the first book. like i said, im dying, so why do i need to be worried about money, when i see its more important to make sure i dont take what i know with me.
