Euphemia Cree
Female, CreeID#3142, (1783 - before 1861)
| Charts | Branch 17c. The Abernethy line |
Euphemia Cree was born in 1783. The date is a guess. Euphemia's name is only known from the marriage record of her daughter, Euphemia Cree, where she (the mother) is described as Euphemia Brown (Cree). Since the daughter had been described in 1851 as niece of Thomas Cree (born 1771), the only possible conclusion is that her mother Euphemia Brown (Cree) was Thomas Cree's sister. She was the daughter of Andrew Crie and Margaret Moris.
Euphemia Cree married Edward Brown.
Her daughter Euphemia Brown was born between 1828 and 1829.
Euphemia Cree died before 1861.1

Her son Edward Cardew Cree was born in 1865 in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.8
On 11 August 1867 Matilda Gregory was living in 550 George Street, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.9
