Hello, I am helping a friend from Scotland who is looking for information regarding a branch of his tree. The Malcolm family is thought to have arrived in Victoria on board Aurora in 1848. Duncan and Isabella Malcolm had one child born at sea and three others for whom I have names later in the Geelong area. They were Robert, Mary (obviously died as baby), Mary Rose and Duncan. Other possible children are William. Isabella, James and Agnes. I have obtained death certificates for both parents but the names of the children are illegible on both certificates. The father died at Ballarat and the mother at Hamilton. On the death certificate for the father the information was provided by a grand daughter named Elizabeth Stephen. Is anybody researching this family? If so, my friend in Scotland has a great deal of information on the Scottish line of the tree and would appreciate any information from Australia and would provide Scottish information. Hope these names are familiar with somebody on the list. Two of the oldest children were born in Geelong, but not sure about the others. I do have reason to believe that Hamilton may have been their home for some time. Thanks for reading, Janet in Sydney
