About Dalton Green Family tree
The Dalton Green Family tree is here to enlighten family members so that they need not do research already
done but also add to it or correct it.
As I knew nothing about the Green ancestry I have come a great distance in understanding my paternal
forbears, the Greens and Durks of Somerset. Gardeners and Tailors and possibly Huguenots. James Green and his
wife Hannah Durk brought their children Fanny, Louisa, Aaron and Anne to Australia aboard the Truro in 1855,
leaving Elizabeth, William and Thomas behind. William followed in 1878 with his wife Sarah Gould and children on
La Hogue. Thomas is still a mystery.
Aaron Green was a successful grocer in Newtown for many years. Sadly Aaron's wife, Rosa Kirby and two of
their sons, William the eldest, 12 years and Frank, 4 years old, all died of Typhoid Fever. He was left with children
aged 1, 2, 6, 8 and 10 years old to rear. His wife's sister Ann came out from England and he married her.
They have one child, George, sadly he dies age 10.
The Banks family from the Fens in Cambridge came to Australia aboard the ship David McIver which arrived
1/9/1853 Botany Bay. Their daughter Emma Banks married John Thomas Cook (unknown ancestry). Their
Daughter Emma Cook wed Aaron's son, Charles Green, a Grocer who traded in Gladesville.
Aaron's son James was in Samoa in 1919 as a trader and married there into the royal family, so the tale
goes, nothing proven so far.
If you are from my maternal Hart side you will no doubt be interested in the link with Joan Shakespeare,
sister of the bard, William Shakespeare who married William Hart, a glover. Also the travels of their descendent
Samuel Hart who came to Australia as a primitive Methodist Minister with his young bride Fanny Wheeler.

On my husband's Dalton paternal side there are the Creeveys; Patrick, Bryan and Lackey, three brothers from
Westmeath in Ireland who were transported. Patrick's Granddaughter Ethel Creevey married Francis Dalton, who was
the grandson of Edmund/Edward Dalton from Tipperary and Johanna Hickey who had both come to Australia met
and married. She came with her brother John on the ship Hydrabad , Edmund/Edward on the ship Sir Edward Parry,
his father Nicholas was already here. Transported to Australia for stealing money in 1838.
Reg Dalton married Annie Marie Tipping - The Tipping family came from Liverpool in Lancashire, John Tipping
and his wife Martha Stewart brought their children William and Charles by the ship Prince of the Seas to Melbourne,
Victoria from Moolton, Liverpool, the place where John Lennon grew up. Maud Bray whose family came from
Peterborough met William Tipping they married in Hay in 1880 and had 12 children.
The Ryan story is yet to be confirmed, we are told John Ryan came to Australia as a cabin boy with some
Monks from Ireland. If you know the story, please tell me. Annie Ryan married Nelson Tipping in Nymagee, 13
children came along, the rest is history!
