Hi, Maureen >Could someone please advise me whether settlers who arrived at Port >Albert from Tasmania were listed in the local newspaper? It varied, depending on the whim of the newspaper staff. Sometimes considerable detail was given, sometimes just numbers of passengers, often no mention at all of people arriving. >Robert, Mary Harper (nee Weeding) >and their two children, Harriet and Flora arrived at Port Albert from >Tasmania In the "Clonmel to Federation" index at Port Albert, the only Harpers mentioned arrived in the early 1840s.
