Family History Robert Farlow
« on: Friday 21 August 15 06:49 BST (UK) »
Robert Farlow b. 1778 was transported to Australia on board the 'Canada' in 1801. His wife Anne Dyer and child Maria traveled free with him. I have found all the information about Robert since arriving in Australia and am now trying to piece together information about his parents. I know his father was Robert Farlow b.1757 and his mother's name was Lydia but that is all I know. Would someone be able to help me fill in this void in my family history. I know that Robert and Anne married in Portsea in 1799. Thanking you in advance.

Robert Farlow was transported on the ship 'Canada' in 1801 along with his wife Ann Dyer and daughter Maria. What I am trying to find out is information on his parents Robert and Lydia, all I know about them is their names.
