Worcestershire / henry ford (not of car fame)
« on: Tuesday 20 October 15 04:11 BST (UK)  »
Henry FORD b Bishampton abt 1829, son of Moses and Elizabeth was married in Wollongong, NSW, Australia to Isabella FOSTER in 1854.  He was shown in 1841 UK Census but not in 1851 Census.  He was also listed as being a Merchant Seaman.  Cannot find his arrival in Australia.  Did he jump ship or was he possibly crew on the "Kate" that brought Isabella to Australia in October 1852?  Any information on Henry would be appreciated.

Thanks Heather for the information.  Obviously he left UK before 1851 but have been unable to find a record of his arrival in Australia.   Grace

Armagh / Re: William Johnston MARSH

It would seem we are working from the same lot of info.  I have narrowed down the options and believe he arrived in Moreton Bay, Queensland,  Australia, possibly on the ship, "Caroline" Nov 1853 but this is inconclusive.  Why the name change?? I am very interested as my maiden name was Marsh.
