Notes
General:
Anne McDonnell was the 1st wife of James Bonham. On her marriage certificate, her father, Michael was said to be a gardener. No details of her burial were recorded on her death certificate.

Handwritten notes of births passed down to myself which are probably pages torn from a family bible headed
The Children of James and Anne Bonham
Anne Bonham wife of James Bonham and mother of these children died in Wellington Street Collingwood on 25th April 1860 at 4am after a long illness in consumption. Buried in the same grave with the children on Friday 27th April 1860. May she rest in peace.

Notes
General:
Catherine is said to have married Timothy Leyden, although I have been unable to find a marriage. Catherine is reported to have died in Geelong in 1948. I have found the death of Catherine Leyden in 1948. Her parents are given as Margaret McNamara and John O'FARRELL, rather than John McDonnell. I wonder if there was confusion over her surname due to the early deaths of both her parents.

I have the births of the following children to Catherine O'FARRELL and Timothy Leyden.

Arthur Leyden b. 1895 / 1147 d. 1927 / 1610
Gerard Francis b. 1905 / 6097

                4. James Joseph McDONNELL (1869-1889) 

Notes
General:
On the 1871 marriage certificate, Frederick is listed as widowed in 1858, he was aged 44 and Elizabeth Jones was listed as spinster aged 40. Elizabeth's occupation is given as servant. Elizabeth's parents are listed as John Jones, carpenter and Mary Owells, the H being left off on the certificate. Frederick's occupation is given as policeman. They were married at St Patricks Cathedral in Melbourne and witnesses to the marriage were possibly J S Vanderslade and Michael Foley.

It would appear that the children listed on Elizabeth's death certificate were her biological children, but although born before their marriage, all registered births and death have these 4 children with Frederick and Elizabeth as their parents and McDonell or McDonnell as their surname. Though registration of births for the first 3 children have not yet been found.

After John's wife's death in 1873, it appears that James Dillon looked after two of the children (presumably Hugh and Mary Josephine) from September 1873 until March 1876, and then Maria Cusack was paid from the Estate to look after two of the children from March 1876 until June 1883 and then 1 child from July 1883, until the winding up of the Estate in November 1883 .
