Working on my Family History, reading my 4x Great Uncle's Obituary,(1839 -1905) when i jumped on the computer to find the property "Ipswich' at Grenfell, I found your page, thank you for the information I enjoy reading articles about our early history. It says of my Great Uncle, He arrived from Hill End, (which is where his parents died) at the opening of this gold-field, and afterwards took up land, being the first to settle on "Ipswich" , which he later sold to Mr. A Hambly. My Great Uncle went to Parks, but returned to Grenfell.
Congratulations on a well presented and informative website. Only just found it but will return many times.
Thanks for your comments Eunice and Ron
Details of the two HMAS Ipswiches can be found on the 'Ships Named Ipswich' page
We are in Ipswich Queensland, and have been here for more than 40 years
Well done to you for making this website, a good idea.
Do you have information about HMAS Ipswich, as we have a book on the history of this ship?

Great website, I live in New Ipswich, NH. The data is accurate. I will share this with "Life in New Ipswich", a facebook grop that I created.
Thank you for your comments John. If you do see any inaccuracies, please let me know and I will amend.
If you have, or know of anyone else who might have, any photographs of New Ipsswich that they would be willing to send in, I will post them on the site (witth appropriate credits, of course)

Through historical search of my father's ancestral background I traced his root back to Ipswich, St. Elizabeth, Jamaica, West Indies. My father who is now deceased was born and raised in Fyffes Penn, Brompton, St. Elizabeth. His father's mother came from Ipswich and his father I understand was related to the Ipswich's of St. Elizabeth. I don't know a lot, only bits and pieces. I am hoping to piece things together. Any information will be helpful. Thank you for posting the information on the sight. Very helpful and informative. Hope to hear from someone soon.
I am a bit surprised that Percy Edwards does not get a mention and there is no blue plaque where he was born in Fore Street. .
