CLEALL / CLEAL / CLAILL

[Georgie9528]

Hi,
I am researching my husband's ancestor George Daniel Cleall  who was 29 at time of his marriage to Frances Roberts in Salisbury, South Australia, in 1874.  George Daniel's father was also called George Cleall, and George Daniel married in the house of George Cleall.  Both father and son were in Salisbury in the 1860's, I have newspaper articles showing this.
(However, I have not been able to find my George Daniel Cleall's DOB or birth place)

BUT  have been given some info on a George Daniel Claill, born 21-Sept-1843, Guernsey, Channel Islands, father - George Claill and mother Mary-Anne Drew, found on Beta Family Search.

I have found a GEO CLEAL and his mother MARY CLEAL who arrived in Victoria on the CYCLONE in 1857.
This Mary Cleal died in Adelaide, South Australia.  My George Daniel lived in Salisbury, South Australia until his death. 

I there anyone from Guernsey out there on RootsChat that can find any more info on the above George Daniel Claill and his parents George and Mary?  Migration info, marriage details for George and Mary, birth details for George and Mary, and more on their parents? 

I know this is asking a lot and I would appreciate any help you may be able to give  me.

Thank you kindly.

Georgie
