I think I have found Henry's family back in UK. Henry b 1826 Lympne Kent son of Henry and Ann Punyer. This agrees with the possible death of Henry in Australia 1901 Bathurst. He doesn't appear in the 1851 UK census or rather I haven't found him but his brother is listed as "mariner". Lympne near Folkestone Kent is a coastal village likely to produce seamen so Henry could have come to Australia as a seaman and decided to stay. Are their any records that might identify when he arrived. + Ted
