    3. Hi to the list, I'm a new subscriber and I'm told that thefollowing info may be of interest to someone on the list. I have two pages of a passenger list for the Waroonga which I am reliably told is for the 1884 voyage UK - N. Qld via Djakarta (or Batavia as it them was). Details are as follows: Full Paying Steerage Marsh, Thomas age 48 Springer, Edith age 20 Assisted Ardron, Frank age 22 Hancock, Susan age 22 " George age 14 " Fred age 12 Newton, Agnes age 32 Free Ash, Fred A. age23 Butler, Alfred age 20 Chappell, William H. age 19 Chase, Miss age 48 Davies, Harriet age 24 Feehan, Margaret age 26 What is, I understand, the next page lists the following, the first of whom may or may not be of the Feehan family " Matilda age 12 " Agnes age 8 " William age 6 " Sarah age 4 " James age 14 Gardner, John age 19 Garner, Fred age 29 " Mary age 30 " Fred age 2 Gazzard, Sarah age 32 " Eva age 9 " Henry age 8 " Mabel age 7 " Henrietta age 5 " Henry age 3 " Gladys age 2 Hosken, Emma age 27 Humphrey, Albert age 22 Hansell, Jane age 37 could be Hamell Handel, Tom age 20 Hansford, George age 20 Hamill, Robert age 35 Heany, John age 18 " George age 16 Hamilton, John age 19 Hindley, Jane age 22 Hancock, Thomas age 54 " Elizabeth age 52 Jones, Elizabeth age 20 Kelly, Edward age 25 Kenny, Charles age 21 Keegan, Thomas age 29 They are in this sequence down the page and I presume that each category is for steerage passengers only, but I don't know that for sure. The above is all the info I have. Ben Brisbane, Oz.
