I see three children born to Peter Cameron his wife Mary MacGillivray in SA, John, Catherine and Simon.

What were the names of children born to them in Scotland?

Do you have them on the 1851 census?

Gail, your post doesn’t make sense.

If Peter Jnr married in SA, how was he left behind?

Here is your post from the other board:

Hello  Back again Have been having a great time "chasing" the Family. The new branch is the CANERON Clan. Peter CAMERON born Inverness Scotland, wife Mary Mc Gillivary married 1845 Inverness came out to south Australia  on the ship Omega1852.
I would like to find out about Peter's  parents where they were born and was he born there also, I hope to travel there next year, so thought there might be a church or information what I could go and see. Thank you for your time Cheers Gail



I took this to mean that you are looking for information on the Peter who married MacGillivray, not Peter the child of them.

And:

Hello you are right got my "M"&"N" mixed up his Dad was Alexander and Mum was Janet nee Grant, May I ask what is the best way to get to the Scotland board. thank you for replying

Now you say you think these are his parents.

HI, well I  have Peter Cameron born 13 October 1845, John 1853 and Catherine 1855 Simon 1857. the story is that  they could only take 3 children with them and left Peter with other family. The other kids are Mary 1848, George 1850, and  Margret 1852 who died on the ship . This is interesting
As Peter Cameron that was left behind arrived in Adelaide 1883 on the Arthurstone  Ship
 the story unfolds as Peter was born 1845-10-13 parents married 5-09-1845.Father Peter born (1821)is the one I am trying to find out about, just giving you all the information I have if it help
Cheers Gail
