Quite a contingent from Stourpaine/Durweston on board the Persia, arr June 1856 into Sydney NSW, from Dorset.
I stress that these look-ups are fairly cursory and would require more research to verify them; it was interesting, though to see how many there were. Looking at the 1851 census there were some living in the same street even.
