Hi, I wonder if anyone can help me.
On Ancestry I have found some of my Wilmshurst family arriving in New South Wales onboard the Aigburth on 12.5.1886 (listed as WILMHURST). All the family (Fred, Mary A, Edgar, Thomas, Edith, Jessie and Maud) seem to be there, plus 3 extras that I'm unsure about (Fred, Fred H and Grace).
I've tried in vain to find more details about the passenger list - can anyone point me in the right direction to find ages, occupations etc?
Thanks,
Janet

Hi Heywood,
Thanks for that, but sorry, I meant ages and occupations as listed on the passenger list - to see if I can link in the extra Freds and Grace. I have found the family in the earlier census records.
I was feeling rather pleased with myself because when I first started my family tree about 2 years ago, I "lost" this branch of the family after 1881, but last week I found them on the unassisted passenger lists when having another look at my early attempts!! 
I've found various BMD's for them in the New South Wales Registry, but another thing I'd be grateful for help with  , is to try and locate any burial records for Wilmshurst/Wilmhurst in the Petersham, St Peters, Leichhardt areas.
Janet

made me think of looking at Free BMDs and there is a birth for Grace, December quarter 1881 - perhaps that is this Grace.
