Hello I am interested in a Henry and Beatrice Fowler, with children Beatrice and Mary, who travelled to Victoria (Geelong) on the ship Covenanter in Sept.1854 arriving in Jan. 1855.

I have traced my Uncle, John William Harley arrival in Australia to the SS Berrima which arrived in Fremantle WA on the 17/6/1925. He is only 17 years old and on his own. I suspect that he may have been sponsored by Dr. Barnardo's children's home in the UK. I am trying to find a passenger list of the ship to see if there were a lot of unaccompanied children aboard, does anybody have a passenger list or a photo of this ship or any advise where I may obtain same. Thanks Michael Harley, Brisbane Australia.

JAMES SALTER and his wife, MARY ANN (born HANNABUS) travelled from Devon in England to Tasmania in 1825 on the ship 'Harvey', accompanied by their three children. They were free settlers going to join James' uncle GEORGE SALTER who had been a 2nd Fleet convict. I would like to know something about the ship 'Harvey' but there seems to be little or no information on her. Would be grateful if anyone who has researched her would contact me. Thank you - new member in South Africa, Ivy Trott.

Hi Listers, I am new to the list and am hoping some one can help me. I am trying to locate the ship that my ancestors arrived in Australian on and then the ship that bought them to Tasmania. The following family came from India to Australia....but I cant find a ship with them listed. I am looking for: Joseph Archer ALDRED b. C1839 in England but married 1864 in India. Lucy Elizabeth ALDRED (nee Conwell/Cornwell) Children (born in India) George ALDRED b. 1865 (about 13yrs) Ada Elizabeth Ann ALDRED b. 1868 (about 10 years) David Philip ALDRED b. 1872 (about 6 years) Edward Frederick ALDRED b. 1873 (about 5 years) Joseph C. ALDRED b. 1874 (about 4 years) William David ALDRED b. 1876 ( about 2 years) Charlotte Amelia ALDRED b. 1878 in Coonoar Hedy, East India The first child born in Tasmania was in 1880 so hence they must have came over between 1878 & 1880. I can tell you 4 of the above children married in Tasmania but as for the others I don't know as yet or died in transit or before getting on board. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you everybody for being so helpful. I will be off on my endeavour now searching for these illusive relatives and the ship they arrived on. My family must be magicians as I'm beginning to believe some relatives actually just appeared out of thin air and didn't need a ship for travel. ha- ha. leanne : )
