Hi Steve62
Have you found out any more info on Nicholas Bonnitcha/Boniccia/Bonachit, I am just hitting brick walls, he said that he was on the same ship "Sir W F Williams" as Euphemia Fraser and her two sisters Ann & Janet, no info on him as a passenger or a crew member which left Liverpool and arrived in Australia in 1856.
On his Naturalisation papers he said that his parents were Marcello/Marco and Catarina, no last name. His first child was a girl and named Catherine Ann (Catarina), his second child was a boy named Mark (Marcello/Marco), then came Donald, Matthew John, Nicholas, Euphemia, Joseph and then Jessie Madeline. It is funny how only some of the children have two names where others only have one, I wonder if the middle names could be any significance to his relatives or his children names, Catherine, Mark, Nicholas and Euphemia, we know where they came from but what about Donald, Matthew John, Joseph and Jessie Madeline. Could one of these be his brothers, sisters and grandparents names, interesting...
Cheers
Stephen
