Family history & descendants of Robert Tompkins born 1852 died 25 may 1931
Robert Tompkins is the father of my paternal grandmother, Florence Amelia O'Shea, (aka Anna Maria ) - nee Tompkins.
Florence, (1890 - 1930) married Patrick O'Shea in Boggabri, in 1908. They had 3 children; Keith, Jesse, & Norman.
Robert is buried in the Brewarrina cemetery. I would like to know more of his marriage details, ancestry & other descendants; - their places of birth, death, ... & any items that can assist me in research into my family history.
My father, Norman Patrick O'Shea, believed his mother's maiden name was Martin. My research, begun after his death, has proved that his belief is incorrect. This misconception of his is a source of mystery to me.
