1820 Settlers
« on: Wednesday 02 July 14 18:55 BST (UK) »
My OHs 5 x great uncle was one of the 1820 settlers (part of "Mr.Clark's Party" aboard the Northampton).
We are interested in what happened to him. Are there any records available online as to who survived and what happened later?

Thanks in advance
