Westozi, do you have records show that Elizabeth and the children came out in 1830?
Or might they have come out after Mr McNoe was established in WA?
I am researching the life of my ancestor Emma Mould, a servant who came to WA on the Cygnet in 1832-33. She made friends with someone travelling in steerage with her: a "Mrs Elizabeth Mc Noe," who had two children with her. I'd like to know more about Emma's relationships so I'd be gratified if you could tell me it's the same woman.
Here's a transcription of the notice that was in The Perth Gazette, Saturday 2 Feb 1833:
