Hi Peter I would be very surprised if there was any authority in Port Davey at all, let alone a port authority. I don't think I have come across any record of actual settlement at Port Davey but I guess there may well have been but if so, it has been very long abandonned. Whalers and sealers used the harbour regularly during the peaks of those industries. I suspect most of the ships ended up in Hobart for re-supplying etc, so it would haved been much easier for the authorities to collect crew data etc there.

Wilfred Smith and Kathleen Mary Burns were married at St Luke's C of E, 9 July 1913. Marriage certificate states Kathleen was 19, residence - Williamsford, Carrick. Parents were Charles Burns and Annie May Burns, nee Butcher (deceased) Interesting to note that because she was under age of 21 and her mother was dead her grandmother, Sophia Butcher signed consent to marry form. Kathleen Mary BURNES was born 2 March 1894 to Charles Henry Burns and Annie Mary Butcher. Reg. place - Stanley # 2337 Can't find anything late on Kathleen or Ida Gloria...

All the records that I have accessed such as Naturalization state that my GG grandfather arrived in Australia in 1857 on board the whaler "James Arnold". Advice from the Whaling Museum in New Bedford in the USA is that the only place that this vessel called in Australia during 1857 was at Port Davey in Tasmania. Would there have been any port authority in Port Davey at that time who may have collected details of crew and other matters pertaining to vessels arriving in port please? Cheers Peter Melbourne

Hi Sue, Albert Henry James Dodge's death and funeral notices are in the Mercury, 1 May 1930. His funeral left his residence at Nubeena and he was buried in the Nubeena Cemetery on White Beach Road. I would strongly suspect that his wife Zella was also interred at the Nubeena Cemetery in 1913. Remember the cemetery well as it was on the way to my grandparents shack at White Beach. Always wondered what would win the fight to out crowd one another - the headstones or the bracken fern !!. Cheers, Peter .

Excellent. Thank you so much for your help. My plan is to hopefully get to the archives one day ( I live far away ) and search through the crew lists for vessels to try to find some details of my ancestor. He has been very elusive. However I know he was a mariner, and I also know his marriage date. So I figured he must have been in Hobart on the day he was married. So I have been searching the newspapers to see what vessels left Hobart in the following month or two after the marriage date. Hopefully if I get to the archives I can look at those vessels and he might be a crew member of one. You have to start somewhere I guess. Thanks for the info. Chris.

Hi Listers, I seem to recall some threads relating to the Hobart Town Gazette not being available online via Trove later than 1827. The early gazettes were produced by individuals and regarded as "newspapers" hence there availability via Trove newspaper digitisation. Post 1827 they were produced by the government and the NLA doesn't recognise them as newspapers so they will never appear via that medium. However a variety of Hobart Town Gazettes are now available online via LINC Tasmania - http://catalogue.statelibrary.tas.gov.au/item/?id=968089 Cheers, Peter

"Cleared out" refers to the completion of customs inspection and payment of all dues when the vessel is 'cleared' for the 'outward' voyage.
