Passenger lookup
« on: Friday 25 August 23 18:33 BST (UK) »
I have information that a relative, Caleb Owton/Houghton, born 1844 and his wife Alice were on the John Rennie February 16th 1873 sailing to Australia. Would it be possible for someone to confirm this please? If there is any additional information available I would appreciate it. Thank you.

 Thank you so much for this information it is really appreciated. I did smile at the comments about  'possible Townsville expense' as it conjures up all sorts of pictures! Maybe he had a trade that was in demand.
