Melissa I see you have posted on another board re: David and Sophia. Are there others on your list that you believe were not born in Australia, or who didn't come to Australia?

"David and Elizabeth who where married in Kerang on the 13th of April 1885 or 1886."

I couldn't find the above on the VicBDM site, but someone else may be able to locate it.
