Hi there,
I'm looking for any information (particularly a birth) for a Richard Henry WRIGHT, and possibly his wife. I got his middle name from someone's tree, so I don't know for sure that it is correct. Richard married Mary Ann Hart, 9 Jun 1851, in Newborough, Northampton, England. They must have moved to Australia shortly after because they were situated in Adelaide, South Australia, when their first child Alice Jane Wright was born (cir 1855). I believe, but am not certain, that they came across to Australia on the "Oregon" in 1851. (The barque OREGON 1851, 521 tons, from Plymouth 12 - 07 1851 with Captain Williams, arrived Port Adelaide on October 31st, 1851 with 363 Government emigrants)
Richard may or may not have been born in Lincolnshire, circa 1822-1830. Mary Ann was born cir 1827-1830, also in England somewhere.
I've found both of these two hard to track because of the commonness of their names.
I know neither Richard or Mary Ann's parents' names.
Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to provide.
Lauren

Have you got their marraige cert? That seems to be a definite starting place, and will give you their fathers' names and occupations, and an age for Richard and Ann.

Unfortunately I can't afford a certificate (unless I bribe my dad to let me use his credit card...). I'm not entirely sure where to order one from either. I thank you for the suggestion, though.

Oh, thank you very much for clarifying that, Pennie. I guess I should have researched a bit more before I put this up. All the counties are kind of confusing!
Thank you for that link also, I'll give it a look.

Hi Sandy,
Thank you very much for all that research. I really appreciate it. The trickiest part, as always, is determining whether that's the right Mary Hart, etc. But it's good to have a starting point, so thank you for it.
Lauren.

Hi again Lauren.
Well I think the link is there.
As John Hart married Elizabeth Johnson and Mary is residing the night
with her grand-parents the possibility is a baptism for Elizabeth.
Will see if I can find one.
Sandy
