Thank you very much.  That is a great help. I am trying to track back the Parker line to when  George Parker married my great great grandmother's sister Susan Robins.  George had been a witness at Martha's marriage to Reuben Leader in 1836.
Cheers,
Narelle.

I can't thank you enough.  You are helping to solve a frustrating family mystery.
 A letter was written in Australia, on 14th July 1868, by Elizabeth Harris nee Leader, to her aunt Susan Parker in England.
 In 1973, the letter was found, in Canada, among family papers, by John Goofe Parker.  He sent a transcript to Australia.
This has been particularly important to me as Elizabeth's sister, my great grandmother, was named Susan after her aunt Susan.  Whereas Elizabeth had been born in Essex, my great grandmother, was born aboard ship on the way to the colony of N.S.W.
