My ancestor Richard Godsall emigrated to Queensland in "Golden City" in 1862 arriving 1863, reportedly via Queenstown, Ireland. I don't imagine Moreton Bay was its first stop in Australia, either. Would there be any record of how long the ship spent in Sydney or wherever?

    3. In Dec 1859, the Melbourne agents for the "Cesar & Helene" of the Godefroy shipping line were F Haller & Co. Does any lister know anything of the agents please? Any suggestions how I find the name of their current business successors? Any ideas where I start to look for business archives containing their records? Bit of a long shot I know, but I really would like to strike it lucky with this query. Regards, Netta Heine, Melbourne

I'm not sure which port he left from or even where he arrived. He was born in ottery st mary devon in 1837. The next we have on him is that he married in NSW to a NEWETON EDITH in 1865. there is no death record of him in nsw. he just seems to have vanished. I have checked ALL the online databases that i can to tryand get ANY info on him that i can but he seem to have swum to oz (very clever ). James parents were PARSONS JOHN and BERRY MARY(I THINK) on the marriage cert it has MARY TIPPET as mother.On the igi it has that his mother was BERRY. On the kids birth rego it has that james was born in DEVONSHIRE,CORNWALL.Also on his marriage cert it has that he was born in TAVISTOCK. How can one man be born in 4 different places? if sks in england could lookup the marriage of JOHN &MARY it mat help me with the parents names for them. the marriage took place in OTTERY ST MARY DEVON in 1831. if anyone has another ideas on how to get any info it would be appreciated. we have hit some major brickwall on this side of the tree. thanks janelle (in overcast nsw) __________________________________________________________________ Get your free Australian email account at http://www.start.com.au

    3. Dear List, Can anyone tell me a little about the operation of Bounty Schemes please? and .... How do I find out if a particular ship or passengers were part of a bounty scheme? (I have seen reference on passenger lists to being assigned to a person for emplyment, but nothing about a bounty scheme, which I imagine, was arranged in the UK and would be covered by separate documentation). Would really appreciate hearing from anyone with some clues on this. regards, Gary Matthews Gippsland, Victoria

    1. [AUS-IMM-SHIPS] JOHN KNOX
    2. GARY & CAROLE MATTHEWS
    3. Dear fellow Immigrants, I have just joined this list, so I am not altogether sure of the sort of queries that are posted, but here goes. I have an interest in a ship named "John Knox", which made three voyages from England to Australia, 1851, 1853 and 1854. It was on the 1851 voyage that my family immigrated from Cornwall. The ship landed at Point Henry, near Geelong, Victoria, on 14 July, being the first immigrant ship to make landfall in the newly declared colony of Victoria. It actually lay at anchor overnight due to rough weather, and it wasn't until the following day that passengers were disembarked by boat. My family came from "The Lizard" in Cornwall, joining the ship at Plymouth, from where it sailed on 24 March 1851, unfortunately just missing the 1851 census. (I assume no census was taken aboard ship, as the passengers had ceased to be part of the population). Does anyone else have an interest in the "John Knox", or know where I could learn more about her? What little I know I have read in Biddles Book in Latrobe Library, and "The Somerset Years", where there is a good account of her arrival. I have also obtained copies of passenger manifests from the Victorian PRO. I am assuming my family migrated under a "Bounty" scheme. How do I find out more about this? I have seen other family histories where details are recorded of how much was paid per passenger and the sum total paid by the government to a person or persons in Sydney or London etc. I thought that perhaps correspondence may exist concerning this, which may also include further details of the passengers. Finally, does anyone know if records exist in England, perhaps at Greenwich, relating to the outgoing passengers on immigrant ships, or perhaps, if Parish Relief was involved, whether anyone has researched these records? Fingers crossed, Gary Matthews Gippsland, Victoria
