  Notes	In an email (28/10/2010) Sylvia Sheehan suggests that Jane married a John Heys and that they went to Australia: Comments: I have a common relative in your tree of Jane Ashburner (b1861), sister of Elizabeth (b1870), parents are Christopher (b1830) and Bridget Simpson (b1830). The connection is: Jane married John Heys in 1853 in Dalton-in-Furness. (I believe 1853 is a typo - DS) Their son, John (b1890 in Melbourne Vic Autralia) married Catherine Walker (b1893) are the parents of Ron Heys who I am researching for. Ron is my daughter-in-law's father. -------------------------- In an Ancestry comment (28/01/2011) Lynette Crisp added more information.

  Ancestry Comment =============== RE; EVELYN HEYS lynettecrisp1added this on 28 Jan 2011 Evelyn was born on 18th May 1894 in Redfern.Her mother Jane Heys had left her husband James and Evelyns father is listed as William Whitehead R/N 28955 NSW BDM.Evelyn married Ernest J Nunan in 1910 in Dubbo R/N 8379 NSW BDM.After Ernest's death in 1925 she met David Alexander Crisp.They had a child Raymond about 1930.Her death is recorded as Nunan and Crisp. I have not been able to find a marriage entry for Evelyn & David Crisp so it is possible that they didn't marry, which would tie in with her death being recorded as both Nunan (real married name) and Crisp (known as name).
