[BABAJACK]

hi i am desperately trying to fill in all the gaps i have with my research, i am looking for info on a william archer born 1812 in england, i am not sure where he was born although on some of the records i have they state he lived in salop but do not say where he was born, when he was 15 he was transported to aus on the bussorah merchant... he got married to a marion wilson in the district of launceston in 1839 had 5 children, need to try and figure out if possible where he was born and who his parents were, have a record of his marriage but it does not have any details of parents on it. any help would be greatly appreciated thankyou. i love this site everyone is so kind and helpful. x
