39. William SPALDING

After his mother's death William and his sister Helen lived with their grandparents in London Street, Larkhall.  According to the 1851 Dalserf census William and Helen were twins.

In the 1861 census William, aged 15, was living with his grandparents at 6 London Street, Larkhall.  He was employed as a cotton weaver. His sister Helen, aged 15, was living with her father and stepmother.  

On 29 December 1865 William, a 20 year old coal miner and bachelor married Ann McDonald, an 18 year old domestic servant and spinster. William's parents were listed as William Spalding, Bottler, and Elen Cimuns (deceased). Ann's parents were Malcolm McDonald, painter (journeyman) and Jane Millar.  The witnesses were Robert Douglas and John McLenan.  

William was also described as a coal miner in his son Peter's birth certificate and in the 1871 census.  In 1871 William and Ann were living at Blackinell Lane, Hamilton.  When his second son John died in 1879 William was described as a van driver. In 1879 they had moved to 8 Lamb Street, Hamilton and in 1881 William was a labourer.

On 1 December 1883 William Spalding and Ann Spalding (nee McDonald) and their children set sail for Australia from Greenock (Port Glasgow) on the "Stirlingshire" arriving in Sydney, Australia on 16 February 1884.  The "Stirlingshire was a 1261 ton ship of the port of Glasgow and on this voyage brought 418 immigrants - 239 males and 179 females. The passenger entry records give his religion as UP, Native Place or County as Lanark with no relations in the Colony.  He was listed as a labourer aged 38. The shipping list shows the three boys, William aged 17, Peter aged 15 and Thomas aged 13, listed separately from their parents and young sisters Annie and Jane, and baby John.  The boys were listed with the other single men with a note that their parents were on board.

The master of the ship was Scott Alexander.  According to oral family history, the baby Alexander McDonald Spalding, who was born on board the ship, was named after the ship's master.  

On arriving in Australia, William and Ann Spalding took a 99 year lease on a property at 28 Roseberry Street, Balmain, Sydney.

In the 1891 census for Balmain, William Spalding with a total household of 6 males and 6 females were living at 28 Roseberry Street.  They later moved to 30 Roseberry Street leaving son William and his wife, Maria, in No. 28.  They lived in No. 30 until their death when it passed to the youngest son, Andrew and his wife, Ellen.

An 18 year old niece of Ann McDonald, Jane (Jeanie) Jack arrived in Sydney on 12 September 1885. Jeanie listed an uncle as present in the Colony. This was most likely William Spalding, her mother's brother-in-law.

At the time of his wife Ann's death in 1912 William was a member of the Balmain Court Foresters' Home No. 6517 A.O.F. (ref Ann's funeral notice).

He was listed as an iron worker in his son Peter's death certificate. William's mothers name is given as Ellen Cunningham and his father William Spalding's occupation as hotel proprietor.  William was described as a labourer.  

DEATH: NSW BDM 6133/1913  SPALDING  William  Father - William, Mother - Ellen Registered at BALMAIN SOUTH
Witnesses on this certificate for William's burial were Peter Spalding and John McDonald. William's cause of death was fractured skull from accidental fall. He was 67 years old. (Ref: Death Certificate and Field of Mars, Presbyt. transcript 30940)

Funeral Notice - Sydney Morning Herald, Monday 16 June 1913
Friends of the late Mr. William Spalding are kindly invited to attend his funeral to leave his late residence 30 Roseberry Street, Rozelle, this afternoon at 2 pm for Presbyterian Field of Mars.

Each of William's children placed their own death notices in the Sydney Morning Herald, so there were notices in the newspaper similar to the above from Mr. and Mrs. William Spalding, Mr. & Mrs. Peter Spalding, Mr. Thomas Spalding, Mr. & Mrs. S. Mitchell, Mr & Mrs. A. Nash, Mr& Mrs. John Spalding, Mr. & Mrs. William Heinrich, Mr & Mrs. M. Spalding, and Mr. Andrew Spalding.   

There were also notices inviting friends of Mr. & Mrs. John McDonald to attend the funeral of their late dearly loved uncle, and friends of Mr. W. Hannah to attend the funeral of his late dearly loved uncle, and officers and members of the court of Court "Foresters' Home" No. 6517 AOF Balmain.

William Hannah the son of the above Jeanie Hannah (nee Jack) worked at the Cockatoo Island shipyard, where William Spalding Jnr. also worked as a furnace man.  William Hannah formed a close attachment to the Spalding family albeit not strictly a nephew of this William Spalding.

Mr. & Mrs. John McDonald(Martha Caldwell) were related to William's wife Ann McDonald. John was Ann's nephew - Ann's brother John's son. This John MacDonald also witnessed William's burial.

43. Peter SPALDING

In Peter's father's will of 1870, William described his younger children living with him as Andrew, John, Thomas and Alexander.  In the 1871 census William and his wife Mary were living with Andrew - aged 10, Peter - aged 9, Thomas - aged 5, Alexander - aged 2.  No record can be found of a John being born to William Spalding in Hamilton. It must be assumed that either Peter was also called John or a transcription error occurred.

No census references after 1871, to a Peter or John Spalding, born around 1861 in Hamilton have been located.  Some time after 1871 Peter Spalding migrated to Queensland, Australia. (Ref: Peter Spalding's death certificate of 1924 which indicated he had been in Australia for 50 years ie migrated around 1874)

In 1881 Thomas is living with his step-brother William and William's wife, Ann and family.

Marriage: Scotland GRO 1892 SPALDING THOMAS HULSTON CHRISTINA HAMILTON LANARK 647/00 0071

Thomas was a coalminer.  Thomas and some of his family migrated to Sydney in 1924. (ref Thomas' death certificate and the entry record below)

UK Migration records for the "Orcades" of the Orient line which departed London on 12 January 1924 includes a Spalding family from 40 Crossgate St. Larkhall, Lanarkshire, travelling to Sydney from Scotland.

Mr     T Spalding, a miner,   aged 47
Mrs    C Spalding, housewife, aged 46
Miss   J Spalding, domestic,  aged 20
Mr     P Spalding, a driver,  aged 17
Master T Spalding,            aged 12
Miss   M Spalding,            aged  9
Master A Spalding,            aged  7

Entry Immigration list for "ORCADES" from the orient Line [SR Film 602]
From London to Brisbane via Fremantle, Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney - arriving Sydney on 25 February 1924.
Arriving Sydney - Embarked London - 3rd Class passengers

Spalding Mr(aged 47), Mrs(aged 46) & 2 children (aged 7 and 9)  Miner  - all British
Spalding Mr P (aged 12) and Miss M (aged 20) - both British
Spalding Mr.T (aged 17)   Driver  - British

In National Archive papers for this ship, probably prepared for the entry at Fremantle, under "Passengers proceeding to Sydney per S.S. 'ORCADES' 12 Jan 1924" it lists a "Thomas Spalding - 7 souls".  So the Mr Spalding listed above would be Mr Thomas Spalding with a total of 7 in his family that were travelling.

In Feb 1924, the family ages should have been:
Thomas Spalding     - 58 years.  Note Thomas was a miner.
Christina Spalding  - 51 years
Jane (Jean) Spalding - 20 years
Peter Spalding      - 18 years
Thomas Spalding jr  - 13 years
Margaret Spalding   - 11 years
Alexander Spalding  -  8 years

It is possible that Thomas and Christina may have been trying to keep their ages down to be able to enter Australia and in the Sydney Entry records there was confusion with Jane, Peter and Thomas juniors initials.

In the 1930 Electoral Roll of Dalley, Leichhardt East, NSW is listed:
Thomas        Spalding - 82 Young Street -labourer
Christina     Spalding - 82 Young Street - home duties
Peter         Spalding - 82 Young Street - labourer
