My Great Great Grandfather, Alexander Burkett, came to Tasmania, Aust prior to 1860. His parents were George Burkett (Master Mariner) and Ann Dryan. I believe the town they came from was Monk(s)ton. In later years he sponsored his mother and siblings to Melbourne, Vic. Apparently his father had either died or stayed behind in Cork. Alexander's occupation at time of his marriage in 1860 was ship steward. Could anybody help with information about (a) Archival records etc. for Monk(s)ton and (b) shipping records both passengers and crew. Thanks, Rosalind Beatty
