Yes I posted on the two seperate boards as there is a possibility they are from either place. Is this against the rules?

Hi Chris,
Yes thats the one! I'm trying to find out how they got to Australia, I am struggling to find the family in shipping records etc.
I have this two hundred year old photo album from that side of the family but have no idea who the people are in it so would love to find out more about where they're from.

Cheers  :)

A stroke of luck  :D

There is a photo of the headstone for Hugh & Agnes available from here:
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~deadsearch/index.html

Click on Cemetery Index page, read the instructions, and scroll down until you come to West Terrace Cemetery, search under MC and you will see their listing.

I will have a look for any children born to them.

Chris.
