    3. Most interested to read the comments about early passengers in this area. There must have been far more we think as records do not exist for a lot. I know, for instance, that 4 adults and around a dozen children landed there in 1852 from UK [and I assume the whole shipful] and then went overland to work for a squatter - no records of the ship or passengers exist but the comments came from a memoir written around 1970. They were rowed ashore in a small boat. Unfortunately it also contained the comment that though the ship name had been mentioned the writer could now not recall it. Pity. Joy
