Walter Cornelius Marshall - arrival into Australia
« on: Friday 24 July 20 06:23 BST (UK) »
I am looking for information re:

MARSHALL, Walter Cornelius Marshall  (sometimes recorded as Cornelius Walter)

his first marriage is to a Susan Bygrave

I believe he was in Greenwich on the 1881 census a letter carrier and widow  (after having been in Canada from about 1869)

looks like he is born 1841 in Loose, Kent  and on his death in Perth the death notice 1921 says he was in the Royal Navy and Postal Department, S.E. District; London and Adelaide

His 2nd Wife who I think is Jane Smith (possible they married in 1881 in Devon???) died in South Australia 1st September 1884  she is buried in West Tce Cemetery along with one of his sons Frederick Augustus and his Maud 

I just can't find any arrival of the Marshall family given there would have been possibly 8 children with him.
 *****just found a Cornelius Marshall and the little family including Jane arrival on the "Dundee"

is it possible to do a search on his immigration into aus.

I thought you possibly had searched BISA...

Nice to hear from you again.  I'm rarely on here these days but always interested in things South Australian.

Cheers

Thanks

I was having a great deal of trouble as my researching was taking me all over the place....

and I did go through state records but was getting nowhere until I thought it might show up as Cornelius

Thankyou

I am trying also to track Frederick and Mauds daughter

May Louisa Marshall.  Is it possible find her date of birth in approx 1901/1902

She marries William Alexander Jones in 1920.   They have 3 children

She comes Mrs Brown when her father Frederick dies in 1941

She dies as Mrs Wilks and is buried in West Tce

She was also a Footall Coach to a senior team connected to the South Adelaide football club..
