Is this the same family travelling to Newcastle in August 1864?

If so, when did they return?  Did they have a child in Australia, or at sea?


[FWIW an earlier passage of a Galbraith family has them returning from Melbourne.

Am hoping that you will have all the little tidbits of number of children, ages, etc that might eliminate these at least.

Hi Twiggy Tree,

Thank you for those snippets. I had come across them during my Galbraith research journey but still cannot be 100% certain that the travellers are mine, although I strongly suspect they are, as I know family in Victoria had been visited at some stage.

These are the registered Galbraith births apart from Annie Mary.....

1861/11730   Galbraith   John Hammond   Dina   James   Born 11.10.1861   

1863/16806   Galbraith   Sarah Alice   Dina   James        Born 2.4.1863

[Annie Mary Galbraith, born about February 1865]

1866/28916   Galbraith   Mary Levinia   Dina   James         Born 14.9.1866

1869/32032   Galbraith   Martha   Dinah   James         Born 7.12.1868

1873/18955   Galbraith   James   Dinah   James          Born 2.1.1873

UK 1911 census states Dinah Galbraith bore 6 children alive. One died with 5 still living.

Otago Daily Times, 25 Aug 1864, under Port Chalmers Shipping, has "Mr & Mrs James Galbraith and 2 children" on the Sydney Packet to Newcastle ...

Edit: Oh, I see someone has already suggested this.
