Member Since: June 2005 Posts: 10 Send Message	Born about 1848 Lancashire England. Arrived Brisbane Australia 1862 age 14, apparently accompanied some horses imported from England. Records relating to arrival apparently lost in a flood in Brisbane. I need some information regarding the ship and if someone has details of parents, father Joseph according to obituary. Worked in Sydney on the GPO construction and married Celia Augusta Sheather. Arrival in Australia is a mystery. Most of married life in Bombala NSW.

	Best to keep everything on one thread, Robert - ie - the other one, to which Chris has posted the link. Saves people duplicating research.
	Researching: Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.
