Hi all I have ancestors named KERR who immigrated to Australia before 1857 from Co.Down, Northern Ireland. The family settled in Castlemaine, the parents Robert and Mary living there until their deaths. I have found records of the family there but cannot find the name of the ship that they came out on. Money was no problem so they would have been Unassisted passengers. Have checked NSW and PROV records but no matches there. Robert born in 1800 and Mary 1805, their children with them; James Frances John Jane David Samuel Margaret William Mary Emma Edmond. I would really appreciate it if SKS who has access to Index's relevant to the NSW or Victoria area, could do a lookup for me. I have a feeling that they were quite early settlers. Thanks heaps for reading this. Cheers Midge
