Thomas Butson PEARSE 15 - 112 Thomas PEARSE Family Tree Family Tree of Thomas Pearse 1775 – 18?? & Mary Butson 1775 – 1827 and their descendants Revised – 22nd March 2021 – V80 Copyright © - Stewart Robert McConachy 2016 – NO unauthorised use or reproduction permitted 1 Thomas PEARSE Family Tree INTRODUCTION The Pearse Family Tree has been created as a series of vertical charts. The lines on the left side of each page represent the generations. The relevant ancestors are listed at the top of each page. The names of children all touch the line coming directly from the name of their Pearse parent. This index includes all known people of the Pearse family. Women are indexed under their maiden/family name only. Where maiden/family names are not known, married names are used. These entries are indicated thus * Where two or more people have the same name, the year of birth is given. If further identification is required, the line from which they come is indicated, such as (J) for John. Descendants of Maxine Mauldin b 1944 and Baden Sylvester Hooper b 1929 are shown in the Samuel and George McConachy lines. Descendants of Sarah Taylor Pearse 1846 - 1920 and Robert McConachy 1829 - 1918 appear in the Robert McConachy line. Descendants of Robert William Scammell b 1935 and Betty Victoria McConachy b 1935 appear twice in the Thomas Butson line. Joanne Gai Scammell & Craig Norman Sheather appear twice in the Thomas Butson line. We now have 3000 plus people recorded in the Pearse family tree. We would like to continue recording the Pearse Family Tree and it would be appreciated if you would make a note in your diary each year to email or post to us an update of your section of the family.

  • Anzac Day 2019—Military Anniversaries in 2019: a Quick Guide
    RESEARCH PAPER SERIES, 2018–19 16 APRIL 2019 Anzac Day 2019—military anniversaries in 2019: a quick guide David Watt (with assistance from Lisa Richards) Foreign Affairs, Defence & Security After four years of activities commemorating the centenary of the First World War it is perhaps inevitable that military anniversaries in 2019 form a less thematic group than has been the case during the past four years. In this quick guide we have chosen not to cover First World War anniversaries because these have been thoroughly covered during the years of the Centenary of Anzac. The Department of Veterans’ Affairs website contains information about Anzac Day commemorations, which are scheduled to be held in a variety of locations. While the 100th anniversary of 1919 contains some well-known events, such as the signing of the Treaty of Versailles, it also contains others that are less well-known, such as the service of some Australians in North Russia during the civil war that followed the Bolshevik revolution. It is also the 75th anniversary of various Second World War actions, some of which are noted below. Date Event Description 5 June 1919 British North Russian Although no Australian units fought in the civil war Relief Force arrives in that followed the Bolshevik revolution in 1917, a Russia number of Australian servicemen volunteered to fight in the British units that went to Russia to assist the White Russian forces. The British had sent the North Russian Expeditionary Force in 1918 (which included nine Australians). When this force had to be withdrawn in 1919, the all-volunteer North Russian Relief Force was raised and sent to assist the safe withdrawal of the first force.

  • TRANSVAAL to TARIN KOWT Digital Booklet
    TRANSVAAL TO TARIN KOWT Australians at War Centenary of ANZAC Brisbane 25 April 2015 1 Before Federation From 1788 until Federation in 1901, the Australian colonies created their own naval and military forces for defence. Queensland came into being on 6 June 1859 and in 1860 raised its first military unit, the Queensland Mounted Rifles. Together with a small number of infantry and artillery, the colony's military forces totalled about 250 men based primarily in Brisbane and Ipswich. In 1867, two new units were raised; the Spring Hill and Fortitude Valley Volunteer Rifle Corps and the Frog Hollow Rangers. In 1897 the Queensland Mounted Rifles became the Queensland Mounted Infantry which was to serve in South Africa in the Boer War. The unit became part of the Australian Army in 1901 but retained its colonial name and distinctive slouch hat worn with emu plumes. It served with horses in World War One before converting to armoured vehicles in all conflicts from World War Two to Iraq and Afghanistan. The colonies also had their own gunboats. By 1880 Queensland had Her Majesty’s Queensland Ships Paluma and Gayundah shown here in South Brisbane Dry- dock. At Federation they became part of the new Australian Navy, later the Royal Australian Navy. 2 The Boer War 1899-1902 Although Australian colonial forces had been involved in the Sudan War in 1885 and the Boxer Rebellion in China in 1900, the first war in which Australia participated as a nation was the Boer War in South Africa from 1899 to 1902. The first conflict in 1880-81, not involving Australians, saw Dutch settlers or Boers resist their colonies being absorbed into the British Empire.

  • Australian Contribution to the Allied Intervention in Russia 1918–1919 from Wikipedia
    Historical Officers Report April 2019 Australian contribution to the Allied Intervention in Russia 1918–1919 From Wikipedia Australian Fusiliers of the 45th Battalion in Russia, 1919 The Russian Civil War (1917–1921) began after the provisional government collapsed and the Bolshevik party assumed power in Russia in October 1917. The principal fighting occurred between the Bolshevik Red Army and the forces of the White Army, being a group of loosely allied anti-Bolshevik forces. During the war a number of foreign armies also took part, mostly fighting against the Red Army—including the Western allies—whilst many foreign volunteers also fought for both sides. Other nationalist and regional political groups also participated in the war, including the Ukrainian nationalist Green Army, the Ukrainian anarchist Black Army and Black Guards, and warlords such as Ungern von Sternberg. Despite some pressure from Britain, the Australian Prime Minister, William Hughes, had refused to commit forces to Russia following the end of World War I in 1918. However, while no Australian units were engaged in operations there, many individuals did subsequently become involved through service with the British Army during the North Russia Campaign. They served in a variety of roles, including as advisors to White Russian units as part of the North Russian Expeditionary Force (NREF). About 150 men of the Australian Imperial Force who were still in England awaiting repatriation following the end of World War I also enlisted as infantry in the North Russia Relief Force (NRRF), where they were involved in a number of sharp battles. The Royal Australian Navy was involved too, with the destroyer HMAS Swan briefly engaged in an intelligence gathering mission in the Black Sea in late 1918 on behalf of the British military mission then advising the White Russian general, Anton Denikin.

  • Australian Victoria Cross Recipients
    AUSTRALIAN VICTORIA CROSS RECIPIENTS There exists amongst the Australian Defence Force and a number of Australian defence- related organizations (such as the Australian War Memorial and the Department for Veterans’ Affairs) a misunderstanding with regard to the number of Australian Victoria Cross (VC) recipients. The current stated figure of 98 recipients is, to put it bluntly, wrong and the problem is that Australians, particularly school children learning about out Defence history and visitors to the War Memorial, are being taught and informed about a distortion of facts. The correct number of Australian VC recipients, as at 2011, is in fact 93. An Australian VC recipient is a person who was in the Australian defence force, as an Australian serviceman, at the time of the action for which he was awarded the Cross, regardless of his country of origin or citizenship. It is interesting to note that of the Australian servicemen awarded the VC eight were English, four were New Zealanders, two were Irish, two were South African and one was Danish (an “English” Australian Serviceman was awarded the Cross during the South African War and during The Great War the Australian recipients included the other seven Englishmen, the four New Zealanders, the Irishman and the Dane). The incorrect number of 98 includes four Australians and an Englishman who were NOT Australian servicemen at the time of their relevant actions. These men were as follows: Sergeant James Rogers. Rogers initially served in the South African War in Australia’s 1st Victorian Mounted Infantry Company; however, when the Unit returned to Australia in 1900 Rogers stayed behind, discharged from the Australian colonial unit and joined the South African Constabulary.

    RAAF Radschool Association Magazine – Vol 35 Page 12 The VC. Chris Jobson With the recent awarding of a VC to an Australian soldier the Australian media and the Australian War Memorial comment that there are now "98 Australian VCs"; this figure is wrong - there are now 93 Australian servicemen that have been awarded the Cross. There exists amongst the Australian Defence Force and a number of Australian defence-related organizations (such as the Australian War Memorial and the Department for Veterans’ Affairs) a misunderstanding with regard to the number of Australian Victoria Cross (VC) recipients. The current stated figure of 98 recipients is, to put it bluntly, wrong and the problem is that Australians, particularly school children learning about our Defence history and visitors to the War Memorial, are being taught and informed about a distortion of facts. The correct number of Australian VC recipients, as at 2011, is in fact 93. An Australian VC recipient is a person who was in the Australian defence force, as an Australian serviceman, at the time of the action for which he was awarded the Cross, regardless of his country of origin or citizenship. It is interesting to note that of the Australian servicemen awarded the VC eight were English, four were New Zealanders, two were Irish, two were South African and one was Danish (an “English” Australian Serviceman was awarded the Cross during the South African War and during The Great War the Australian recipients included the other seven Englishmen, the four New Zealanders, the Irishman and the Dane). The incorrect number of 98 includes four Australians and an Englishman who were NOT Australian servicemen at the time of their relevant actions.
