Hi

Welcome to rootschat 

You don't say when you think William came to Australia but could this be him?
William Tully
Age 35
Arrival Date 19th Mar 1850
Vessel - Reliance
(NSW assisted passage)


Looking at the image it gives occ as Fam Labourer and native place and county Armagh which would not tie in with the London christening.  Religion is C of E

I had also been looking at that family Jennifer    In 1851 Maria is a widow with a 'Willshaw' (Wiltshire) grandchild living with her.

There is also a very late baptism at St Pauls Clerkenwell in 1886 for Caroline    parents John and Maria Tully - johns occ Organ Builder (1821) 
Caroline Tully married Charles Thomas Davis 13th June 1863 - it states she is a widow but her father is John Tully Organ Builder.  It looks as though she was previously married to Francis Neal 22nd July 1839. 

What occupation does William give for his father on his marriage?

I saw the Maria on 1851 but did not have the sense to see Willshire as Wiltshire doooh!

Well spotted.

John Tully father of William was a organ builder..

Good so we have the right family 
He appears to have had at least two sisters -
Mary Ann who is with her parents on the 1841 that  Jennifer found married to John Wiltshire.

Caroline whose marriages are as follows -
22nd July 1839 - The Parish Church, Hackney
Francis Neal - full age- Bachelor - Pencutter -Residence Dalston Lane -father William Neal, occ Locksmith.
Caroline Tully -full age-spinster-Residence Dalston Lane - father John Tully occ Organ Builder
Wit Francis Fisher and Emily Neal.
......
St James Church, Shoreditch -13th June 1863
Charles Thomas Davis - age 32- Widower - occ Engineer -res 7 Holywell Lane - father Thomas Davis - Engineer
Caroline Tully- age 36 - Widow - res 7 Holywell Lane - father John Gully - Organ Builder
Wit John Wiltshire and Maria Tully.

Carolines marriage age cannot be right
