Joseph was born on the ship "Macedon" going from 1 aust state (port) to another Aust state (port) hence the reason his middle name is Macedon.

I have been in touch with Turnbull family before (email address) but haven't been able to raise anyone for quite some time.
Via the work from your family, it turns out that your Hannah Embleton was the sister of my Grandfather Joseph Macedon Embleton. He married Lilian Jane McParlin (I have a copy of their marriage Certificate) and until recently it was thought that Joseph was an only child (there was never any other family mentioned.
Joseph was a mine manager in Kalgoorlie when he met and married Lilian. I wonder what happened for him to not have contact with his family and what happened to them. Joseph and Lilian had 3 boys and 3 girls. There are now just 3 male Embletons.
Would love to know if you have any other information on the Embleton family. Big ask, I know, since you are researching the Turnbull clan, but anything you or your family members may have would be appreciated.

Hell again Brian,
The following is info I received from Dianne Turnbull back in 2003.
"Now, a couple of years ago I stumbled across a copy of the Newcastle & Lower Hunter Pre - 1900 Pioneer Register. he information was collected by a researcher in Sydney. The following information is what I found.
George Embleton was born 1831/1832 in the Northumberland/Co. Durham area. He was the son of Robert Embleton and Hannah Roxsby. George arrived in Melbourne aboard the vessel "Ocean Chief" in 1854. He was a free settler and his occupation was listed as "Goldminer". On December 6 1856 George married a Mary Ann Wilkinson in a Ballarat Presbyterian Church.
Mary Ann Wilkinson was baptised on January 1 1832 in Haswell, Co. Durham. She was the daughter of Thomas Wilkinson and Margaret Burnip. Mary Ann arrived in Melbourne on September 9 1856 aboard the vessel "Golden Era".

The last bit of information I have is that George and Mary Ann lived on the Hamilton Commonage from 1880 until their deaths in 1908 (George) and 1916 (Mary Ann). Both of them are buried in the Church of England section at Sandgate Cemetery.
I haven't heard from Kayta for about 18 months now. From her research Kayta found that her ancestor was a Robert Embleton (born 1822) who was the brother of George Embleton (born 1831/1832). It seems as though Robert and his family also lived in the Hamilton area before settling in the Maitland district. As certain Christian names were always used in the family, it's been tricky working who belong to who - if you know what I mean."

Now an interesting bit! You mentioned that Joseph was born at sea. Yet the information listed in the pioneer register states that all of the children were born in the Ballarat/Durham Lead areas of Victoria. Unless Joseph was born en route to Newcastle? Of course I do not know how old this research/information is.
The last bit of information I have is that George and Mary Ann lived on the Hamilton Commonage from 1880 until their deaths in 1908 (George) and 1916 (Mary Ann). Both of them are buried in the Church of England section at Sandgate Cemetery.
I haven't heard from Kayta for about 18 months now. From her research Kayta found that her ancestor was a Robert Embleton (born 1822) who was the brother of George Embleton (born 1831/1832). It seems as though Robert and his family also lived in the Hamilton area before settling in the Maitland district. As certain Christian names were always used in the family, it's been tricky working who belong to who - if you know what I mean."

I have been in touch with Turnbull family before (email address) but haven't been able to raise anyone for quite some time.
Via the work from your family, it turns out that your Hannah Embleton was the sister of my Grandfather Joseph Macedon Embleton. He married Lilian Jane McParlin (I have a copy of their marriage Certificate) and until recently it was thought that Joseph was an only child (there was never any other family mentioned.
Joseph was a mine manager in Kalgoorlie when he met and married Lilian. I wonder what happened for him to not have contact with his family and what happened to them. Joseph and Lilian had 3 boys and 3 girls. There are now just 3 male Embletons.
Would love to know if you have any other information on the Embleton family. Big ask, I know, since you are researching the Turnbull clan, but anything you or your family members may have would be appreciated.
Kind regards,
John Embleton

It seems as though Robert and his family also lived in the Hamilton area before settling in the Maitland district. As certain Christian names were always used in the family, it's been tricky working who belong to who - if you know what I mean.". Hereinafter cited as "E-Mail - John Embleton." Hello Brian
I have been in touch with Turnbull family before (email address) but haven't been able to raise anyone for quite some time.
Via the work from your family, it turns out that your Hannah Embleton was the sister of my Grandfather Joseph Macedon Embleton. He married Lilian Jane McParlin (I have a copy of their marriage Certificate) and until recently it was thought that Joseph was an only child (there was never any other family mentioned.
Joseph was a mine manager in Kalgoorlie when he met and married Lilian. I wonder what happened for him to not have contact with his family and what happened to them. Joseph and Lilian had 3 boys and 3 girls. There are now just 3 male Embletons.
Would love to know if you have any other information on the Embleton family. Big ask, I know, since you are researching the Turnbull clan, but anything you or your family members may have would be appreciated.
Kind regards,
John Embleton
Hell again Brian,
The following is info I received from Dianne Turnbull back in 2003.
"Now, a couple of years ago I stumbled across a copy of the Newcastle & Lower Hunter Pre - 1900 Pioneer Register. he information was collected by a researcher in Sydney. The following information is what I found.
George Embleton was born 1831/1832 in the Northumberland/Co. Durham area. He was the son of Robert Embleton and Hannah Roxsby. George arrived in Melbourne aboard the vessel "Ocean Chief" in 1854. He was a free settler and his occupation was listed as "Goldminer". On December 6 1856 George married a Mary Ann Wilkinson in a Ballarat Presbyterian Church.
Mary Ann Wilkinson was baptised on January 1 1832 in Haswell, Co. Durham. She was the daughter of Thomas Wilkinson and Margaret Burnip. Mary Ann arrived in Melbourne on September 9 1856 aboard the vessel "Golden Era".
Their children were:
Margaret Eleanor Embleton
Mary Ann Embleton
Thomas Embleton
George Wilkinson Embleton
Robert Embleton
Hannah Embleton
Margaret Burnip Embleton
Thomas Wilkinson Embleton
Joseph Embleton
Elizabeth Dickinson Embleton
Now an interesting bit! You mentioned that Joseph was born at sea. Yet the information listed in the pioneer register states that all of the children were born in the Ballarat/Durham Lead areas of Victoria. Unless Joseph was born en route to Newcastle? Of course I do not know how old this research/information is.
The last bit of information I have is that George and Mary Ann lived on the Hamilton Commonage from 1880 until their deaths in 1908 (George) and 1916 (Mary Ann). Both of them are buried in the Church of England section at Sandgate Cemetery.
I haven't heard from Kayta for about 18 months now. From her research Kayta found that her ancestor was a Robert Embleton (born 1822) who was the brother of George Embleton (born 1831/1832). It seems as though Robert and his family also lived in the Hamilton area before settling in the Maitland district. As certain Christian names were always used in the family, it's been tricky working who belong to who - if you know what I mean."
