Hi David,
Would you know the surname of Martha? born 1794 at Hatley? Do you know of any siblings for her husband John, born at Kingston in 1792, Do you know of the details of the marriage between John Smith, son of William and Ann to Martha, possibly around 1830? Do you know of anyone born Ann Ellington? Is it likely that my great grandfather John (Ellington) Smith, born abt 1840, when answering questions in NSW in the 1880's-1900's regarding his own orgins when registering his own children in accordance with the then rules of the NSW BDM registrar-general's office, may have said he was born in Parish of Ely, in Cambridgeshire, England, rather than in Ely when asked "where was the father born"? Of course, these are rhetorical questions, but I would like to know if you have any comments about those questions. I have searched IGI extracted, CAMDEX, free BDM and the usual sites.
The fee paid for George Smith for that voyage to NSW in 1859 was noted as one pound per passenger, and he was charged and paid one pound even for that baby "born in the harbour".
Thank you for that online catalogue link, I think perhaps I have been advised of it previously, but I will check it out again.

If its not too much trouble, would you be able to put links to various possible online sites that may be outside of Cambridge but within the Ecc Parish of Ely please? I have checked and the link in your previous posting I and others have searched on many occasions since perhaps mid 2008 when on another board a chap offered it as a suggestion to help find "my" John (Ellington) Smith.
On the other hand, I am also interested in John and Martha Smith and their descendants, not just their son George, but the others too, for the first name of "Rebecca" is significant to my immediate paternal line.
Cheers, MA.
