In the early days of Australia, if you paid your own fare, no-one seemed to care very much as to who you were and where you were from. If you were a convict, or assisted immigrant, the govt kept good checks on you The moral of the story being - if you want to find your roots - hope your ancestors were poor or dishonest  Trish
Only too true - and depressing, when one cannot find the arrival of middle class pillars of moral rectitude!

Hi Trish,
Could you please do me a HUGE favour and check out my Holdsworths for me. I don't have access.
I have them in England on the 1851 Census and then they turn up in New Zealand via Australia in the mid 1860's.
Am looking for David, born about 1898
Mary Eliza or Maria born 1811
Children or any combo of;
Ann Elizabeth born 1839 or 1847
Martin Luther
David , 1834
Eliza
John Torr 1837 approx.
Thanks,
Trish

Hello Trish 
Not much joy - the unassisted lists have no information & the transcriptions have included CREW! and there were 2 or 3 Holdsworths who thus make up 75% of the list! This was my best shot - but looking elsewhere, not likely
Mr Holdsworth London to Sydney arrived 9 Feb 1857 Lord Warriston
Also on board Misses Holdsworth
There are actually 4 Misses - from here
http://mariners.records.nsw.gov.au/1857/02/022lor.htm
Given your time frame - you can check all the assisted here
http://www.records.nsw.gov.au/archives/indexes_online_3357.asp#ImmigrationampShippi
There is a small amount of extra information on ancestry - if you find anyone let me know & I'll check (but I don't see your folks)
For unassisted you can check here - the search routine is rather basic, but the transcriptions are better than ancestry & if you find them - the scans are given
http://mariners.records.nsw.gov.au/
The additional information on ancestry is for earlier and later years than you are searching.
Trish

Hi Trish,
Thank you very much for your help. I had searched on most of those sites and was hoping for a breakthrough on Ancestry.
Unfortunately David was a Draper, and probably had some money and would be listed as Mr. Holdsworth. He possibly came out with one of his sons and then the rest of the family joined them in N.Z.
Did find my g/grandfather William Leggett ( from Yarmouth, Norfolk) as crew member 
Thanks again for your time and help.
Trish

The information Ancestry gives is certainly scant. I had a look at that mariners site but they are not up to the years I want yet. Will have to cultivate patience (very difficult!) as I'm hoping for some further info that might confirm, or otherwise, what my cousin has found on Ancestry re Bentleys coming to Sydney.
