Jenny that is interesting, the information I got from Maritime Museum in Port Adelaide  stated Grace Mary Ann b 30/1/1877. Port Pirie. John Edward b Baroota John Henry William m Mary Elizabeth Neylan 1904 d 19/4/1943 Booleroo Centre  had child Manfred Laurence James b 1905
Esther Lovell m Charles Poyner 20/6/1903
Otherwise my information is the same as yours.
except they had Elizabeth Jane b Prince Alfred Mine, maybe this is why I was unable to find any record of her birth, I was looking in the wrong area.

Hi Rosie,   I have not been able to find his birth certificate so far. I have been told by my cousins that he could be part aboriginal, therefore he may not be registered. I do know he lived at  Prince Alfred Mine in the Flinders Rangers in South Australia and married Helena Reid 15-9-1873.  Jenwindy

Hi Ken
       Aurther Jospeth Davis was my grandfather and I have been trying to trace the Davis family for some time now with not much success. I believe Thomas and Matilda came out from England 31st January 1849 with 3 children Elizabeth Ann, Thomas Hand, Walter Charles.  Fredrick Samuel b 4/6/1841 d 17/10/1844 Mortlake England, James b 21/7/1846 d 31/7/1846 Mortlake England.
      Thomas m Matilda 21/4/1838 at St George Church Hanover Square Middlesex.
      William Davis was father of Thomas.    John Watts was father of Matilda.

Hi Susy, Sorry to hear about your Aunt at Bunderberg. The elderly are a wonderful source of information, we all have so much to learn about our ancestors. I have been able to trace the Davis family back to Thomas and Matilda who sailed to Australia 31st Jan 1849 from Plymouth on the "Stebonheath".
I have hit a stone wall with the Blight family. Only able to go back to Adam Reid m Mary Kennelly 2nd Sept 1854. Children Helena Eleanor 1855, Mary Jane 1858, Michael 1863, Catherine 1867, Adam Tennant 1867, Annie 1872, Sarah Ann 1875.

Hi,  Thank you for the information on the Blight family now I would like to trace the Davis side of the family. Arthur Joseph Davis was my Grandfather he married Elizabeth Jane Blight 9th Oct 1897 in Wilmington.
His Father was Thomas Davis. I have a letter sent to my Aunty June 1996 from the District Council of Mount Remarkable saying they have installed a plaque in the Melrose cemetery for Thomas Hand Davis and Helena Davis. Thomas Hand Davis and Helena Davis married later in life, he was a younger brother of Thomas Davis her first husband.
I have some information on a Thomas Davis m Matilda Watts in England. They set sail for Australia on 31 Jan 1849 from Plymouth on the ship Stebonheath arrived Sth Aus 11th May 1849. They had 3 children Elizabeth, Thomas and Walter. Trying to find out if this is the right family.
