As yet I haven't made any progress on the McPhail family, my interest in Neil was because he married Catherine McDonald. I have found Catherine's family travelling aboard the New Zealander and arriving in Australia in November 1853, but as yet haven't found any information on the McPhail's travel. You may however find this website useful, and the chap that runs it is very helpful - http://www.mullfamilies.co.uk If you contact him via the website with the information you have on John McPhail he maybe able to assist you, but if I find anything I will pass it on to you. regards Linda Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
