Hello Searchr,Yes I tried to be fancy with cherryseed.wordpress.co./tailors-the-markwell-family

Hello again Seachr,thanks for the info on JOHN SMALL's parents etc....
I am going to list 2 sites you may have not seen but they are very helpful!
CHERRY SEED
CLIFTON BEACH
As you can see I am not to flash on the PC but I can tell you one thing in this researching,not everything is gospel...ie my wife's maternal family[Irish/Italian] changed their names[christian/surname] at least 15 times from the 1880's to the 1930's so it would not surprise me what was true or not,but I would like to think JOHN SMALL met HARRIETT MARKWELL on board "THE CITY OF BRISBANE"...Redards Medusa

To searchr, JOHN SMALL [my wife's GG Grandfather] came out to Brisbane as a sailor I believe on "THE CITY OF BRISBANE"...the same ship THOMAS MARKWELL and his family did including HARRIETT MARKWELL in 1862,who then married JOHN SMALL in 1863 in SOUTH BRISBANE!
I have not been able to get any records from the Qld Government ,which is strange as I can get records of passengers fom the "CHASTLEY" in the 1840's which carried THOMAS MARKWELL 's siblings?.
THOMAS MARKWELL died in a tree felling accident just after the family got to Brisbane!
I am not sure where you are but if you are in Scotland ,maybe you can find some shipping records regarding the "CITY OF BRISBANE" over in England[I believe that is where she sailed from.
JOHN SMALL is buried in Murwillumbah Cemetery[age 78 in 1917] while the MARKWELLs are a well known family in Brisbane,saying that his son ISAAC is buried at Lutwyche Cemetery, Brisbane and his granddaughter VIOLET LUTISHA SMALL married WALTER PARRY at LISMORE N.S.W.
Would appreciate it if you could list JOHN SMALL"s parents as I got a bit confused after reading the messages...Regards Medusa
