Hi Jenny,
I cant find a Edward Nutt/Caroline Cosway marriage or a Edward Henry Nutt on any English Census born c 1852.
There is a Caroline Cosway who married James Nutt and emigrated to Australia in 1848 on "The Agincourt" which left from Calais
Image of record has her parents as SAMUEL/CAROLINE, Father living in Tiverton
James Nutts parents John/Mary, both dead
James was a Smith (Blacksmith) from Somerset
1822 Pigotts Directory has these Nutts listed Tiverton;
COSWAY Samuel Grocer Fore St.
COSWAY Richard Artist
COSWAY Thomas Currier Bampton St.
COSWAY Thomas Perfumer Gold St.
There is a Caroline Nutt Death Reg NSW 1900 and it has her Parents as;
Father's Name Thomas
Mother's Name Caroline
So informant didnt know her Fathers name if it is her?
Or wrong name on Ship record for her father?
(Also a Death Reg 1879 for a Caroline Matilda Nutt, Parents George/Sarah from memory)
So informant didnt know her Fathers name if it is her 1900?
If the one on Shipping List she would be in her 90's.
