    3. Hi Everyone, I am looking for any information in relation to this lady, who subsequently emigrated to Sydney in 1838 and married a John Douglas of Rothes in Dec 1838. This is my current brick wall and I am hopeful this note may be the breakthrough I need at this point! Below is a copy of the Shipping Index I have found relative to Hellen Forsythe - hope this helps!! FORSYTHE, HELLON (SINGLE WOMAN) Occupation: Dressmaker and house svt Rel Presby Age 21yrs R.W. - Native Place Minerd, Argyleshire, Scot Father FORSYTH - Synclair Mother Catherine Then... in the section Children, says: Children In care of William and Christian BRICE (I assume because she was single, these people took her under their wing on the ship????) Engaged by Mrs EDWARDS, Sydney Also a note that her name was also given as Ellen, but knowing the literacy around at that time - who knows!!! Does anyone know if there are transcripts of cemetary records for the Minard area? Thanks for any help! Liz
