Hello everyone. :)
Joseph Hope born Blackrod Lancashire 1858. Emigrated to Australia late 1800's.
His wife and son Rachel and Richard Hope emigrated to Australia several years later.
I hope someone will be able to find the years Joseph, Rachel and Richard arrived.
Any help will be much appreciated.

Hi, Kaye,
According to FindMyPast,
April 12th 1890, Ship OROYA, Plymouth to Sydney,
Travelling together, Rachel Hope, Aged 32 yrs,
Richard Hope Aged 9 yrs,
If it's them, Joseph must have left after 1880-1881
Regards Brian

RICHARD HOPE d 1961 Father: Joseph Mother: Rachel Ref 15307/1961 District Bulli
RACHEL HOPE d 1918 Father: Edward Mother: Ann Ref 14773/1918 District Bulli
There are several deaths for Joseph Hope.
A possible is

Hi Raylen and Brian, :)
Thank you so much for your reply.
Raylen... The deaths you found are definitely my Hopes.
Brian..... The emigrants Rachel and Richard are also my Hopes.
Great work! I now have some more leads. :D
I don't suppose Brian that you could find what year Joseph emigrated?
Kind regards

By the State Records Office
Rachel and Richard Hope arrived as assisted imigrants, you can order a copy of the record from the State Records office.
He is listed on the 1881 Census in England so it would be definately after that as Brian says
kind regards Jenn

Hello Jenn :)
Thank you. I am sure the last Joseph Hope will be the one i am looking for. As you said - his age appears to be the clue. The other two are too young.
Great work! ;)
Take care.
