Lookup request - STREAT family on the Wellington COMPLETED

[jbml]

The Wellington sailed from London on 3 October 1881, arriving in Auckland on 2 January 1882.

Its steerage passengers included Mrs Mary Streat (sometimes spelled Street) and her five children.

The only thing is ... according to the 1881 census she had SIX children:

51 Westmoreland Place, Shoreditch (RG11 Piece 389 Folio 120 Page 30 Schedule 1175)

George Street, 57, head, General Labourer
Mary Street, 39, wife
Francis G Street, 16, son, Taylor's errand boy
Annie M Street, 13, daughter, scholar
William Street, 11, son, scholar
Richard Street, 8, son, scholar
Augustus Street, 3, son
Jennett Street, 3, daughter
Thomas Eyre, 27, boarder/lodger, boot clicker
Harry Bolton, 20, boarder/lodger, picture frame maker

I know that Mary's busband did not sail with them (he worked for Reid & Co's brewery and needed to finish his 30 years' service to qualify for his pension) ... but which of the six children did not sail with her?

If somebody with access to the passenger list could look this up and let me know, I should be exceedingly grateful. (My best guess is that it was one of the twins and that they had died in the interval between the 1881 census and October 1881 ... but I don't want to go looking for a death until I know for certain WHOSE death I am looking for ... and of course there is the further possibility that all six children sailed, but that one of them died on the voyage).

That's going to be the one, Trish ... I got muddled with the dates.

The family sailed in two blocks ... her father and brothers saied in 1881, but she and her children followed them (same ship).

And mystery solved!

Thank you do much!

Still can't find the passenger list, though ...

I am happy I could help.

But dont have access to passenger list either.

How did you access the Register of Deaths at Sea?

It's not incorporated in the "civil deaths" on FindMyPast ... so I didn't get any hits when I searched for a death of 5 year old Jeanette Streat in 1884.

Had been busy searching for your earlier request > ship "Wellington" to Auckland 1881. 
For that voyage, there appears to only be a passenger list which was published in a New Zealand newspaper.  It did not include anybody by the name of STREAT or STREET (or other variation).

The death of wee Jeanette, was due to "whooping cough".

added :   The above newspaper report states that this voyage of the "Wellington"   (Capt. COWAN) was from London to Port Chalmers, NZ ( departure November 16 - 1883) :
Port Chalmers served the Otago province in the South Island (NZ) ... a long way from Auckland.

Oooohhh ... that's magnificent, Lucy ... thank you sooo much. And we see Jeanette in the list, too, as it's the departures list not the arrivals list.

Sorry to have wasted your time with the wrong voyage ... but if you are able ot post a link to that passenger list too it will not be entirely wasted, as there is a point I need to check in that one, too.

I'm still missing two passengers from this family: Augustine Adam King (who might go under either name) and Francis King. I think that Augustine Adam OUGHT to have been on the 1881/2 voyage; but all I know for Francis is that he was in New Zealand by May 1884.
