No, sorry Sharon, no connection that I can see. My William Mann came to Australia in 1838 - 50 years in Colony at death in 1888 and was the son of Robert Mann and Mary Anne Sizeland who were married in Norfolk in 1809.

Hello Marilyn My friend is a descendant of William White and Margaret Reilly. Their daughter Charlotte married Robert Madden. I did a little research for her some years ago and found that William White was on the hulk 'Justitia' before transported to NSW.

Hi Kaye and List Just saw this entry and was wondering if you could check two names for me on your list. I am trying to find out as much as I can about these two men. 1. Johan (John) Charles MELEN or MELAN arrived on the "Chatham" in 1850 (Swedish) and continued to stay in the Stockton Newcastle area on 'boats' of some sort until a bad accident with a log on a boat. 2. Gustaf Arvid "SMITH" (probably englacised). Born Sweden. On his Naturalization papers on 22 December 1885 it stated he arrived on "San" "St" or Saint" JAMES. The only reference I can find about a "St James" vessel was wrecked in 1848, so obviously not that one. He also lived and worked on vessels in the area at least until 1879 and apparently worked on ships that went to America and England (according to his grand-daughter). He would have arrived in Australia around 1876 according to his Death Certificate. If anyone can give me a clue how to find out more about the arrival of these two men I would be grateful. I think that they both must have been "seamen" and came to Australia as crew. Cannot find any record of "Chatham" either. A relative told me that this was the ship he arrived on as a 17 year old in 1850.

Hi there Bev, are your Crafts the same family who married into the King and Connolly families (e.g., Alice Ada Craft who married Stephen Mark Connolly or Laura Lavinia Craft who married John Richard Connolly?). I am trying to track down any descendants of Uncle Steve Craft as I would like to know whether there are any photogrpahs of Connolly family members... Thanks, Sean Halpin

Hello Cathy It would appear that Catherine was buried 3 September 1913, Plot 107, Sect K, RC Cemetery Sandgate. A note says removed to Section 15 Plot 26.
