Hi i am first of all only learning how to do this so please be patient with me. I am trying to find info on john latham born 1810 porlock,somerset. Parents were william and joan latham nee taylor, John ended up in tasmania how??? He also marrried Mary Williams 1842 but tasmania have no records of the marriage, he later married mary oneil in tasmania. I can't find him as a convict and i have no idea where to look if he was a passenger or if his parents were. Hoping someone can put me in the right direction..Thank-you

Hi i dont really know that he married in 1842 as tassy info says that was the first child born there, so they go by that date, and i do not know if he married mary on ship or not.
Cheers Kaye

Welcome donagher  To start with all the info on the Lathams is submitted on the IGI and needs to be checked.
The actual marriage record, extracted, is on; www.freereg.org.uk
William LATHAM Joan TAYLOR St Dubricius', Porlock, Somerset 10 April 1797 There is an Edward, possible brother, who marries 1799 and 1810 also.
Only child born to this couple William/Joan on this site is; BETTY Latham, 01 December 1799, St Dubricius', Porlock
Checking with soundex we have;
LATHEM; BETTY, 01 December, 1799 BETTY, 28 June 1801 EDWARD, 06 February 1803 JOHN, 12 April 1807 SARAH, 10 April 1808 JOHN, 17 June 1810 ( Twin Sons) WILLIAM, 17 June 1810 (Twin Sons) JAMES, 25 August 1811 All christened St Dubricius, parents William/Joan
I would say first Betty and John died and other children were named after them. Possible deaths, Betty Latham, 02 February 1800, Porlock John Latham, 19 July 1807, Porlock Oh, sad; William Lathem, 04 November 1810, Porlock, infant- twin son. And John , infant son-twin, as well same day. Back to the drawing board I think .
Where did the info on John Lathams parents come from???

Hi Trish thank-you for the info i do have a lot of that and its confusing alright, i got my info on john latham off latter day saints site, the person who submitted this info on john latham was a descendant of the lathams and she said she got it from the lds records.
