Is this your man?...seems to have forged a good career and there must be info on him.

Left blighty in 1864.....though he would have been 22 not 20 as they have said on the link.
Either that if he was twenty then he left in 1862 and not 1864!

Thanks gibbo.

That's one I didn't have. I have a lot of stuff about his work in South Australia. One source says he arrived 1864. As Lee says, it's either 1862 or 1864.
