Hi.

I am trying to get any info. at all about my G/grandfather James Nowland who was born in London about 1813/1825 (his age varied on all certificates). He married a much younger woman!
His parents were supposed to be John Nowland a Locker & Isabel Walsh.
Whats a Locker is it a person that operated the river locks?

James arrived in Victoria in approx. 1850 I think aboard the ship Lloyd aged 37 hence born C1813.He married  Emma Brown & they had 6 children before he married my G/grandmother Margaret Doyle in 1871 & they had another 6 children.

James Nowland's occupation was a cordial manufacturer.

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards

Brian
