Emily Audley died Victoria, Australia in 1893
« on: Tuesday 31 July 18 20:39 BST (UK) »
Hi All,

I can see from the Victoria State Death Indexes that an Emily Audley died in 1893 her father is given as William Audley and Mother Mary Griffin.

I believe that this Emily Audley was born 6th August 1819 and Christened 22nd September 1819 at St Philip's church in Birmingham, England. I know this Emily Audley was living in Marylebone, London, England a Dressmaker in 1851.

Can anybody please tell me when she emigrated from England to Australia and anything about her life in Australia?

Thanks for your help

Hi Giblet,

Yes Emily Audley did have a sister Sarah Audley, christened 8th October 1830 at Brighton Sussex, England.

It therefore looks as though the mothers maiden name is incorrectly recorded on Sarahs death registration should be Griffin as per Emily's death registration and not Griffiths!!

The death announcement in the newspaper definately looks like it is them.

Interestingly I have found both Emily Audley and Sarah Audley in the 1851 census of England living at the same address. However I can only find Sarah Audley in the 1861 census of England.

I wonder whether Emily Audley Emigrated First and then Sarah followed or whether they emigrated together.

Thanks for both replies

I have not been able to find the actual arrival for them as yet but at one stage they both appeared to have gone to Sydney. That would put Sarah's arrival between 1861 and 1864.
