Jenny's family descend from Roger & Marie Pinsent. Jenny is a very active Yeo researcher for all Australian Yeos and has a massive database of information.

Letter from Danielle Howey

Dear Sheila Thanks for replying to my email. It is always good to hear back from people about your family history, it gives you a lift and makes you keep on slogging through it all. The line of Yeo's I am researching are my mum's family and over the years they have lived in Bathurst, Dubbo and Coonamble, all in New South Wales. My great x 3 grandfather was a Roger Yeo who married a Maria Pinsent (I have different spellings). They married in about 1814 in Swymbridge. His son James, married twice and his first wife died in Bathurst gaol in 1860 after being in there only one night. His second wife, Eliza Burfitt (different spellings also) beared hime many children and one, of course, was my great grandfather Ernest James Yeo born in Dubbo in 1865. His dad and his family apparently arrived here in 1836 onboard the "Amelia Thompson". I first was interested in my family history when I was younger and my mum and her sistes used to talk about their days when they were younger and the relatives that they had. They were all facinating stories and I just want to know more and more. It's great stuff. If you do happen to have any information on my lineage I would be greatful for it beyond belief and if I have any extra I will definitly pass it on to you. Regards Danielle Howey.
