Charles Thomas Hilder

[hookleg]

Can anyone help me track down the date of his sailing to Australia or arrival there, the name of the vessel(s) or his arrival in Tasmania. Would there have been a trans shipment from mainland Australia to Tasmania or a direct passage?  He was recorded on the 1851 census aged 7 as living in Gt Whelnetham, Suffolk. His mother died when he was 12, in 1856. He was in Bothwell, Tasmania by about 1865. I imagine he would have been at least 14 before setting off on his own to sail for Australia. I do not know of any relative who may have accompanied him. So that would, I imagine, make his emigration between about 1858 and about 1864.
I have his family details other than this. They are as follows:- He was born in Pakenham, Suffolk, England, July 1844, the son of Henry Hilder and his wife Lucy Mary Snape. He had 10 siblings and 2 half siblings.(2 emigrated to America and one to S Africa) Charles married Margaret Knight in Bothwell March 1865. The couple lived there and raised their family. Charles died in 1908.
Thanks for any help on this matter.
