Coincidence they both married soon after arrival after losing a spouse on the voyage out.

I'm sure I searched for r* in Qld. and r?... in NSW BMD.

Born 13 Aug 1855.

What else are we missing?

 

[DaveHam9]

The bio on Barbara said she arrived with an infant.

He died on the voyage out, and the young widow, with her babe in her arms, ...

The bio on Barbara said she arrived with an infant.




Was that Jemima?

I think is was Jemima. In her death notice it has Cragie so im assuming she was born from Barbara's first marriage. I cant find a death index for her tho.

No mention on shipping record of an infant or one born vessel.

I can't find a death in Qld. index for her. You would expect something in the newspapers then.

This is very interesting:

On arrival in Sydney Harbour on 25 October 1852, 2 children and 6 adults had contracted scurvy and required treatment.

The shipping reel should be correct and I don't see Mary being written as a mistake for someone saying 'Barbara' so these must be wrong:

Barbara Craigie
birth: 5 July 1826
christening: 12 July 1826 Rousay & Egilshay, Orkney
James Craigie & Barbara Robertson

James Craigie & Barbara Craigie
24 Jan 1852 Rousay And Egilshay, Orkney

This looks like the family in 1851:

Perhaps the shipping reel does not have 'Jas. & Mary' but 'Jas. & Margt.' so I've put the image up on the Documents board.

[DaveHam9]

There is a possibility the cousins (no names and don't know if surname is even CRAIGIE) of Barbara Craigie may be in the Pentland area of NW Qld. prior to 1863.

[DaveHam9]

I can't find anything in TROVE 1850-1900 searching 'craigie' and 'pentland' because I keep getting Pentland Hills in Victoria.

 

[DaveHam9]

I give up looking for the cousins. No given names and don't even know if surname is CRAIGIE.
