On the shipping records it states that they were from Berkshire and on CHARLES marriage certificate (he married Elisa Wichelow here in Australia) his fathers name is recorded as CHARLES, his mother's name was not listed. My gg grandfather was born circa 1846, his brother William circa 1848. I have looked on the Hale family website but my family doesn't appear to be listed there. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Regards- Heather _________________________________________________________________ If It Exists, You'll Find it on SEEK.
