Dear Glenva, I'm not sure what detail you have already got, but hopefully some of this is new for you: Baptism: Thomas STICKLEY - 27 February 1780 @ Milborne St. Andrew - Parents Thomas & Elizabeth STICKLEY Marriage: Thomas STICKLEY (of Milborne Styleham) to Rebecker (sic) ADAMS - 11 April 1803 @ Bere Regis Witnesses: John STICKLEY & William RAWLES (the clerk) Baptisms: George STICKLEY - 28 February 1810 @ Milborne St. Andrew - Parents: Thomas & Rebecca STICKLEY James STICKLEY - 21 May 1804 @ Milborne St. Andrew - Parents Thomas & Rebecca STICKLEY Isaac STICKLEY - 12 January 1808 @ Milborne St Andrew - Parents Thomas & Rebecca STICKLEY Burial: Isaac STICKLEY (of Milborne Stileham) - aged 29 on 23 September 1837 @ Milborne St. Andrew Marriage: George STICKLEY (of Milborne Styleham) to Eliza HASE (of Milborne Styleham) - 30 November 1830 @ Bere Regis Witnesses: Thomas STICKLEY & Ruth HASE (sic) - Dorset FHS via Find my Past (On the Bere Regis Village site via Dorset OPC - It has Eliza HALL & R?

C395263 on the IGI (along with other STICKLEYS who all appear to be living in / around Milborne), but it is an odd batch number for Melcombe Regis so I think it has been mis allocated and maybe is a batch for Milbourne Styleham or Milborne St. Andrew) Furthermore, the Melcombe Regis baptisms 1731 - 1880 have been transcribed on the Dorset OPC site but no STRICKLEYs are listed at all!) I have also checked the baptisms for Bere Regis (as Milborne comes under the civil parish), but although there are STRICKLEYs (& variations) there aren't any that match the above.

I see Levi Henry BILES b 1854 is on 1861 & 1871 census' with his parents in Milborne Stileham. I see Levi BILES entered Australia on the John Rennie from Plymouth in 1873 with his father George & siblings. Were the BILES & STICKLEY families on the same ship or did they meet up once they were in Australia? I see that Kate & Levi married in Australia.
