LYTTON James 20 Sultana 1855 Sydney and/or Newcastle

Native place looks like Redruth. Its on page 6 of the passenger list.

Have we done this one before? Just had a feeling like we have

 

[DaveHam9]

Thanks Gibbo.

Yes that must be him - a mason from Redruth CofE R&W

[gibbo]

So thats another one down then :biggrin: Dont dare tell me how many more to go :2fun::2fun::2fun:

 

[DaveHam9]

Ok, I'll agree it's one more down. :2fun:

But...

I'm about to post another family from Redruth. I have about 6 or 7 families from there.

The most famous one is the GRIBBLE - the missionary who set up the mission at Yarrabah. Miner turned into Congregational minister.

Sounds interesting that one does :biggrin:

 

[DaveHam9]

If you want to look there is heaps of stuff about him and his son who took over the mission you can find by searching. Controversial figure.

 

[gibbo]
