Hi KlW

What were you wanting help with?

Reading your post…
Did Archibald’s family go to Australia after him?
Or is the fact that you and your mother are in Australia the result of a later emigration?
If he emigrated in 1854 and died in 1855 it doesn’t seem much time for him to marry and have a child. But of course not impossible!

A quick skim through the previous posts about Archibald MYER and Hugh HART.

I can add the 1854 Mermaid shipping passenger list shows Hugh HART aged 54 and Archd.MAYER (sic) aged 36 ticketed together (#1282) arriving July 1854 to Melbourne from Liverpool.
