Hagg

From on Sat, 7 Feb 2004

Hi, I am new to the list and would like to post some surnames I am researching in my tree:
My main lines are the following families in Victoria
MILLAR Paul, his wife Johan ( Annie ) ROSS and family immigrated from Edinburgh Scotland 1850's
Their children were David, Daniel, Margaret, Annie and also
Euphemia MILLAR who married Hamilton WEBSTER in Edinburgh 1847 ( also settled in Melb ).
Elizabeth MILLAR marr Melb 1853 John Henry HAGG,
Catherine MILLAR marr Melb in 1854 William HARRISON,
Paul MILLAR marr 1856 Melb Elizabeth ROWE,
George Hamilton MILLAR marr 1875 Melb Anne STEVENS

Hello Linda...

Yes most of this family disappeared from Victoria in the latter part of the 1800's. John Henry Hagg was born in Colchester Essex around 1824 I believe and came over to Oz when he was around 27 (perhaps!) He married Elizabeth Millar in 1853 They had at least 5 children I know of although I don't have a Henry Hagg. John Hagg was an Outfitter/Tailor. Elizabath Millar was the daughter of Paul Millar and Annie Ross. She was born c1835 in Edinburgh. It certainly sounds like we have the same Hagg family though... so it would be great to hear from you. I am not a Hagg descendant but a Millar one. Elizabeth in the daughter of my Millar family who migrated from Scotland in 1852. I did notice an Alfred Hagg in the 1881 census in England "Glass Artist" born Victoria Australia 1858 (?) so I suspected that they might have returned to England...

Hi Lyn,
I am sure it is the same family. I have a copy of the 1861 census showing John H Hagg 46yrs living at 9 Old Market Place ("George")Sudbury Suffolk. He was a master tailor employing 6 hands. Elizabeth 35yrs, Alfred 12yrs, Henry 8yrs, James 4yrs and Eva 1yr. Henry, James & Eva all born in Sudbury.I also have a 1861 census entry which shows a Alfred Hagg 37yrs clothier employing 50 women, 24 men and 1 boy in Colchester (difficult to read address 1 Balotph? St)
living with sister Georgiana 42yrs and nephew John A Hagg 4yrs, born in Australia. Looks like this family moved back and forth quite a bit.Do you know if Helen, Jane or George stayed in Victoria and if so what part?
I might even have to start barracking for a Melbourne footy team now as both my grandparents families have links to Melbourne! Regards

Linda
to exchange info easier please contact me via f_lynette with the @hotmail.com to complete...
I do have info on George Francis Hagg, Helen Ann, and the Millar family etc... George Francis must have taken after his parents... he had a mile of different addresses just here in Melb....

Hain

From on Sat, 2 Feb 2008

Hi Elizabeth,
I just found your listing for this couple and their children on your website. I was wondering if you are related to them as I am descended from their eldest daughter Mary (who is not listed on your site) who was born in Cornwall prior to their emigration in 1849.
Richard & Grace were married 7th Febrary 1848 in Hayle, Cornwall (according to the information they gave when they the birth of one of their children).
Mary was born 31st August 1848 in Penzance, Cornwall.
Richard, Grace & Mary arrived in Melbourne on the "Osprey" on 2nd March 1849. Richard was the son of Edward Hain and Mary Williams of St Ives, Cornwall.
Cheers,
Andrea Fitzgerald
