Sean, do you know roughly what year John Mallin would have been born ? cheers Jenny -----Original Message----- From: Sean_tee Sent: Friday, August 16, 2013 2:29 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [MAR] Mallin - Ship's Carpenter Dear Jenny & Piers, Many thanks for your time and all your research on my behalf. Jenny to answer your question; John Mallin, ships carpenter, was the son of Michael Mallin. I don’t know his mother’s name, I’d be guessing. John was married to Mary Mangan in Dublin in 1848 and they had two sons Michael (1852) and John (1854). Therefore given the birthdates of his children I would think John was on the 1858 voyage. John’s wife died before he went to Australia and his children were reared by their grandparents. John died in Australia, don’t know when or where. I think he has an accident and it may have been something to do with his gold mining activities in the Bendigo area. That’s all I know. Piers would you know who bought the INDUSTRY and what became of her? Also what was the role of the agent T.H. Martin, Forrest and Co were they the ship owners? Thank you for the reference number to the crew list, the next time I’m in London, I’ll look it up at the National Archives. Again, much obliged for all your help.
