Sorry - only John Jnr appears in Australia in the 1840's. the others just disappear.

I do not know if it was a solo walk, but he is the only person mentioned in that walk.
No John Grundy convicts  fit either John Grundy Snr nor John Grundy Jnr - wrong age, wrong place of origin, wrong occupation... As I said it is a mystery.
They (the whole family) seem to disappear for 14 years - all of them.
And yes, you are a help as you are looking at this puzzle through a different set of eyes...

That is my whole problem. As far as my records go (and any others I have searched) John Grundy, his wife Mary (Taylor) their daughter Hannah (born approx 1824) and my John Grundy (1826 - 1910) disappear from British records after John's birth.

John jnr re-appears as walking in approx 1840 from Circular quay (Sydney - where the ships came in) to Campbelltown (approx 62 klms away using today's roads - probably a lot further in 1840).

There appear to have been a lot of John Grundy's around in the ear;y 1800's - both in Britain and in Australia.

Came across this thread again - I know it has been years since it was started, but there maybe some more information out there. No sign of any of the family in any census record in England. According to his death certificate, and his obituary, he (John Grundy jnr) arrived in Australia in approx 1840. No sign of him on any ships' passenger list. And no sign of his parents or sister anywhere either....
He is the only one of my ancestors that I cannot find entering/arriving in Australia, nor leaving England for that matter.
He accomplished a lot after his arrival and has heaps of descendants.
If anybody can shed some light on this mystery, I would be very grateful.
