Trying to establish the identities of the Mr and Mrs Davis who came to VDL from NSW by the brig "Elizabeth" in Sept of 1829. Have looked at the newspaper and Archives arrivals lists for this vessel and they only say Mr and Mrs no first initials or first names? Wondering if there might be a passenger list from NSW's departures that might add that information but not familiar with NSW's documentation? Cheers, Peter

Hi Peter, It was quite common for that..around that time...I have a Mr and Mrs with 8 children...who "may" be mine..but cant find more..

Hi Peter No early official passenger departure records survive aside from what was in the newspapers .Unsure whether such were kept ? About the only thing I can think of would be the 1828 census. Alas all up there were 197 x DAVIS in this record Who do you hope they were ? Is there a record of his occupation ? Bye MargM Beautiful NSW Central Coast ----- No virus found in this message.

Hi Peter The two records below are from the Tasmania Archives, they are showing a Mr and Mrs Davis departing Hobart for Port Jackson, no given names recorded Also I also found the record for the ship "Elizabeth" on Ancestry, and I read it a bit different to you. I think it sail from London April 26 1829 and arrived at the port of Hobart Town on the 4 September 1829 Van Diemen's and then sail for Sydney 30 September 1829. I think you should be looking for the 'Elizabeth' arriving in Sydney after the 30 Sep 1829. <http://linctas.ent.sirsidynix.net.au/client/en_AU/names/search/results?qu=D avis&qf=NI_INDEX%09Record+type%09Departures%09Departures&qf=NI_SHIP_FACET%09 Ship%09Elizabeth%09Elizabeth&qf=NI_DEPARTURE_PORT%09Departure+port%09Hobart% 09Hobart&qu=NI_SHIP_FACET%3DElizabeth> close Name: Davis, Given Name Not Recorded Record Type: Departures <http://linctas.ent.sirsidynix.net.au/client/en_AU/names/search/results?qu=N I_INDEX%3D%22Departures%22> Title: Mr Rank: Passenger Departure date: 30 Sep 1829 Departure port: Hobart <http://linctas.ent.sirsidynix.net.au/client/en_AU/names/search/results?qu=N I_DEPARTURE_PORT%3D%22Hobart%22> Ship: Elizabeth <http://linctas.ent.sirsidynix.net.au/client/en_AU/names/search/results?qu=N I_SHIP_FACET%3D%22Elizabeth%22> Bound to: Port Jackson Document ID: NAME_INDEXES:541380 Resource CUS33/1/1 p144 Name: Davis, Given Name Not Recorded Record Type: Departures <http://linctas.ent.sirsidynix.net.au/client/en_AU/names/search/results?qu=N I_INDEX%3D%22Departures%22> Title: Mrs Rank: Passenger Departure date: 30 Sep 1829 Departure port: Hobart <http://linctas.ent.sirsidynix.net.au/client/en_AU/names/search/results?qu=N I_DEPARTURE_PORT%3D%22Hobart%22> Ship: Elizabeth <http://linctas.ent.sirsidynix.net.au/client/en_AU/names/search/results?qu=N I_SHIP_FACET%3D%22Elizabeth%22> Bound to: Port Jackson Document ID: NAME_INDEXES:541381 Resource CUS33/1/1 p144 Hope this helps Cheers Josephine Qld. -----Original Message----- From: aus-nsw-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:aus-nsw-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Tas Tyger via Sent: Monday, 18 May 2015 12:28 PM To: .
