The latest: No record of Parents of Robert on the Marriage and Death registry.
I have chased the Father: Peter Morice Mother: Ann Falconer case.
I found that there were two other children not listed on the 1841 census mentioned:
Peter born 9 August 1826 Banchory Devenick, Kincardine, Scotland
Anne born 11 April 1830 Banchory Devenick, Kincardine, Scotland
I haven't been able to find then on the 1841 census.
In terms of 1851 census : I couldn't find the parents, perhaps Peter died, Ann died/remarried
I tried to track the other children. Possibly found Isabel Morice as a servant, James Moras as a farm servant. But can't find daughter Anne and George. Other son Peter had married Elspet Chisholm and is listed with her.
In 1859, Anne(daughter) married John Watt, listed on 1861 census. Then they went to Australia. Found them in Victoria. Anne died in 1912.
James could be "James Morise" ploughman on 1861 census. Tracked James to Victoria, Australia as well. His death certificate (1908) states that he spent 39 yrs in Victoria and 2 in Tasmania before that. Looking for his arrival in Australia. Robert lived in Tasmania so maybe he went to Robert.
I came across a photo of James and compared it to poor copy of a photo of Robert that I have. Some similiarities, but maybe its my imagination & hope.
I would be interested to see what happened to parents and where the missing children were for the 1841, 1851 etc census.
Still hoping for that exact proof of connection.
If anyone can find anything it would be great.
