I am searching for my great-grandfather Henry William WALKEY who emigrated from England to Australia and later from Australia to Utah, USA in 1872. He was in NSW before 1863 and married Mary MOSS in Saltwater Creek, NSW in September, 1863. They resided in that area until 1872, after the birth of their fourth child, and emigrated to join the Mormon movement in Utah. It's been suggested that he may have arrived aboard the ship the _Ascutna_ in 1853. I did a search of the unassisted shipping index at < http://www.vic.gov.au/ > and find a Mr. Jno WALKEY aboard the _Ascutna_ in Feb 1853. The researcher who suggested this says that the name is Mr. JNO WALKEY and that JNO means 'Junior Naval Officer'. In my experience, JNO or Jno is short for the name 'John' and if that is correct, then this is clearly not the Henry WALKEY I am seeking. Family tradition has it that Henry was a sailor from England but I don't know if he was ever in official naval service or if he just worked around ships. My questions are: does JNO stand for Junior Naval Officer or similar rank in the navy; how would a 'sailor' enter Australia; and would he be listed in the Unassisted Shipping Index as an unassisted *passenger* or would he be listed amongst the *crew* of a particular ship? Any hints on how to find the ship on which my ancestor arrived in Australia or the ship he and his family departed from to go to the US are greatly appreciated.
