My guess is that either George Howe's parents (Samuel Howe & ?) or Mary Rossiter's parents (Henry Rossiter & Eliza Holloway) were related in some way to Samuel Haines Barrett's parents so I'm just trying to work out where in the hope that it might shed more light on the family. It seems too much of a coincidence that Sarah Rossiter married Samuel Haines Barrett and that her sister, Mary Rossiter, would name her son, Samuel Haines Howe. The South Australian colony was still pretty small and they all appear to be mining families.
