How are you doing Photomax ? :)  Have you been able to find the info on NSW BDM
http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/Pages/family-history/family-history.aspx for yourself?

It's free to use and can use wildcards so is very useful for your NSW family.

Just shout if you have any problems  :) (all the BDMs vary and have their own quirks)

cheers,

Quote from: Photomax on Thursday 15 December 16 10:48 GMT (UK)
The Downes Family arrived in Sydney NSW 9 August 1883 from London England (Tilbury).
On a boat called "Pathan".
I'm hoping to:
1. Trace their addresses?
2. Occupations?
3. Marriage Partners and Children?
Grateful for any help  :-*

George Downes, Railway Worker, aged 35 (1883)
Mary Anne Downes 34 (Nee Elliston)
Bessie Downes 8
Laura Downes 4
Emily Downes 1
