James MAGOR b1841 to SA 1858
« on: Monday 18 April 11 03:23 BST (UK) »
Looking for info on James MAGOR c 30 May 1841, son of Mary & James Magor. James came to Australia on the 'General Hewitt' 1858 with his widowed mother and sister Mary Jane to join his older sister Lavinia and her husband John SYMONS.
Last record I found is he was a witness at the wedding of Mary Jane to John WOON, 19 OCt 1860 at Kooringa, SA.  I have BDM for SA and nothing seams to line-up.
thanks, Beverley

Thanks to both Cando and Gerry, have that info, but still the particular James I'm looking for is elusive.
I will pm to my cousin from the referred post thanks.
