   Hi Lu...
  Seems they are related by marriage doesn't it?
 William does not appear in 1861 so left after marriage but cannot see any clues from then.

Hi Tazzie

Thanks for the link.   

Helpful to have that ... especially the census info.

Yes, it does look like the sisters of Oliver DAWSON married Messrs. MEDWIN and POTTS ... and they all ended up here in New Zealand.

[Just re-adding the link to England board - so it can be "clicked on".    ]

Hi Hereford

This looks like Matthew POTTS travelling from Victoria to NZ with wife Elizabeth and a daughter Margaret Jane.

Outward passengers from VIC :

"HYDRA" - March 1863 - to Port Chalmers

POTTS - Matthew (27) / Elizabeth (28) / Margaret Jane (2)

 Chinnor Oxford HO107/883 F 30 P10
 Lydia Medwin 36 widow (crossedthrough) not b in county
 William Medwin 13                                         b in c
 Lydia Medwin 11                                              "

Yes, the 1841 looks a good match, Tazzie.   

Mmmm  ... will have a look at the incoming lists for Australia for these people.
