This couple married in Mansfield, 1857. I found them singly on census 1841 and 1851. They emigrated to Queensland, Australia sometime before 3 April 1862, when their eldest son , Manley Henry Hitchon, was born in Tara, Queensland. They them appear in Balclutha, Otago, New Zealand. Henry died 28 Oct 1892, at Adams Flat, Otago, NZ and Jane died 1916, Tokomairiro, Southland, NZ I think that Henry's parents were Eli and Charlotte (it has been suggested her maiden name may be Nettleship), and Jane's parents were John and Elizabeth (no maiden name known) Bennett, both born abt 1791. There are 2 possibilities on the 1851 census, John Bennet b 1795 Marnham, Notts or John Bennet b 1796 Darlton, Notts. I have membership to Ancestry UK but that doesn't help me much to find births and marriages and family for Eli and Charlotte, and John and Elizabeth. I'd be very grateful for any ideas, information, etc on these people. I know a fair bit about the NZ end, but have just found the UK end. TIA Regards Jan Moon Daintree, Australia
