[DaveHam9]

2nd. Don't know if Samuel married an Ann.

The Courier (Brisbane, Qld.) - Sat 28 Mar 1863 p.2
MARRIED.
March 13, at Brisbane, by the Rev. J. H. Fletcher, Wesleyan Minister, Alfred Slaughter, senior, to Emma, eldest daughter of Mr. Samuel Thompson, of Luton, Bedfordshire.

Jan 1866 would rule out this one so ...

3rd.

Alfred married three times so Ann is the mother of which one?

Are you looking fo an Ann, mother of one of Alfred's 3x wives?

Geoff

 

[DaveHam9]

Yes Geoff.

Date rules 3rd one out and that is Sarah and 1st one seems to be Susanna.

No known spouse of Samuel Thompson.

Dave

 

[DaveHam9]

Emma Thompson born abt 1820 Luton, Beds.

I can't find the Wacey marriage or any other Wacey deaths in Qld.

 

[DaveHam9]

I don't have Emma Thompson in 1841 or 1851 yet.

Married William de Fraine first.

Mrs Caroline Slaughter (nee Darling) died on the Fortitude on 9th October 1848 following a confinement on 2nd October 1848, so only her husband, mother Mrs Ann Wacey, and Alfred Snr's children landed at Moreton Bay.

Then wrong parents for Caroline Darling or ...

“FORTITUDE" IMMIGRANTS”
(Courtesy of Mr. E.V. Stevens who researched the list of passengers of the "Fortitude" which arrived in Moreton Bay (Brisbane) in 1849 for which there is no known official roll of names in existence.)

Not exactly correct. Should say not a full and accurate list of all on board exists.

Wacey, Mrs. Anne, 69. Mother of Mrs. Slaughter.
Wacey, John, 23. Nephew of Mr. Slaughter.
