And possibly her death.
17902/1934
MOSS Amelia E
Father Charles
District Sydney

May be simply a co-incidence with Amelia's name and you would need certificates to validate the info.

Cando

Pretty good chance it's right ;D

Birth in NZ
1860/12163 GOODALL Amelia Elizabeth
Parents  Agnes & Charles

This funeral notice confirms the middle name on the death of Amelia in NSW was Elizabeth

Humphrey was crew - steward, on the coastal vessels between Hobart, Melbourne, Newcastle  and Sydney.
I can find him a steward in Sep 1865 on the YOU YANGS,  and later on the MACEDON, VICTORIA, DANDENONG and SOUTHERN CROSS.  The last I can see him in the crew lists is in Oct 1875 on the SOUTHERN CROSS arriving Sydney from Hobart Town.  Most have his nationality at British but on a couple he is born Wales.

Interesting info about the BLEACH family, and their connection to "The Argus" newspaper

retirement of "C J Bleach"
http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article11088009

obit for George Able BLEACH
http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article12432055

From the obit I gather the family were from Sussex and arrived in Victoria, where they had more children born from 1857 - these are all free to search on the Victorian BDM website, if you'd like more detail?   ;)
http://www.bdm.vic.gov.au/

Added: From Free BMD George BLEACH married Elizabeth BENNETT Dec qtr 1853 at Brighton (2b/321) and George Abel birth registered Dec qtr 1855 Brighton (2b/164)

Should also have added the above articles are about Walter's brothers and mention his father

I don't have access to findmypast, however a search shows George BLEACH born 1831 on a passenger list to Victoria in 1857. And a search on the Public Record Office Victoria site shows George and Elizabeth BLEACH aged 26, and George BLEACH (no age) arrived Jan 1857 on the Sussex.
