Can't find a baptism for George Harris abt 1840 in England.

Can't find Patience Harris in 1841 census or in Assisted passengers to NSW.

Thanks Geoff.

They are RC but I will look them up at the local library if they have the film readers connected yet after the rearrangement.

My Christmas day menu on the General Chat forum. :)

Another strange thing. Quoted text on this site can't be copied then pasted.
