Hi. This is an interesting thread. My 2x Great Grandmother (Jane Elizabeth Campbell, aka Jane Elizabeth Kellett, b. 1832-1835?) was related to this Campbell family and came to Queensland with them in the 1840s/50s. I have not been able to find much about her, I would like to know more about who was the child that "Bbyone" (in post 8) mentions on the ship with John & Temperance.

I am trying to find out more about the Campbell family and Stevens family in USA and Canada.
I think my connection may be to one of the siblings of either John Campbell or Temperance Stevens.
Also I would be interested to know if it is possible to find the ship record/ passenger list for the brig Mary in 1835. Many thanks for any suggestions.

There are newspaper reports including passenger lists here: http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article12852742 and here: http://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/31716775. I think the passenger lists are available on Ancestry.com, but I don't have a subscription.

Neale1961,
Temperance's mother, Elizabeth, was a Perkins so you might like to check out this site as well: http://www.wilsonmuseum.org/johnperkins.html.

Thanks for your reply Mrluigi. I had the newspaper reports. The museum link was interesting, however, still no lead to the "needle" I am chasing in the "haystack". I will continue to look into the Campbell family.

Hi,
I'm unsure if there is still activity in this chat stream, here goes.  I'm trying to find a little more about John Campbell and his brother-in-law John Stevens early years on the Darling Downs, 1841 to about 1845.  I thought perhaps someone in the family might have more information.  One of my own my family crossed paths with both men around the same time.

Cheers

Thanks Neale, I've seen the latter, unfortunately I've found with some of this early story telling in newspapers, its usually only the beginning and there is quite a way to go teasing fact from fiction. 

I've looked for the memoirs previously, title helped this time. 

Thanks again
