I was trying to see if there was a John Anderson around Portland on the 1856 Victoria electoral roll but Ancestry electoral rolls seem to have a new display mode.  Last time I looked you would get people of the same name in date order but this time I was getting John Andersons with dates all over the place and well into the 20th century.  Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr  >:( >:( >:(

Hello Judith,

Given the number of John ANDERSON's (take a quick peek at RootsChat??) and finding him in Australia is probably a forlorn hope........a pity, given the quite extensive narrative I found for his life pre-transportation.   Ah well, the joys of genealogy :-\

Take care and my best wishes for 2019.
