Hi Shirlee, Thanks for your reply. I do indeed have the info mentioned below. I am wondering where the ship they travelled on - Sir William Eyre- departed from. I found the name of the ship as the first child was born at sea - very lucky for me or I would still be trawling through ships & passenger list!!

It looks as if the transcribers doubled up on the entries: Family name firstname age mth year Name of Ship port Fiche Page MCEVOY ---- INFANT WITH - JUL 1857 SIR WILLIAM EYRE B 127 010 MCEVOY ---- MRS - JUL 1857 SIR WILLIAM EYRE B 127 010 MCEVOY CHARLOTTE 18 JUL 1857 SIR WILLIAM EYRE B 127 003 MCEVOY CHARLOTTE 18 JUL 1857 SIR WILLIAM EYRE B 127 006 MCEVOY THOS 22 JUL 1857 SIR WILLIAM EYRE B 127 003 MCEVOY THOS 22 JUL 1857 SIR WILLIAM EYRE B 127 006 The fiche might be copies of the original documents which will show which port it left from. I noticed by your address in a previous email that you live in the rural area of NSW. Most Libraries have a family history section, so you will have to ring around to find out which Library has a family history section with microfiche and microfilm readers.
