Alexander Horsburgh

[susbla]

Alexander Horsburgh married Emelia Ann Moss in 1862 in Victoria Australia.  I can find no record of birth in Australia.  Does anyone know of a relative who emigrated to Australia that meets this criteria.  There is a record of an Alexander Horsburgh born about 1831 who arrived in Melbourne December 1854 from Liverpool of Scottish ancestry, but I cannot find any links many thanks
