Surname First name(s) *** Age Occupation Where Born Remarks
FARMER Edward M 20 Engineer Warwickshire
FARMER Jemima F 25 Outside Census County (1841)
Arrived in Australia before 24 Jul 1842. ???
Either the pob is wrong or the census is wrong. Census is probably correct.
Now we have age at death, but probably still can't find a baptism or arrival.
We really needed father's occupation. Looks like too many James & Sarah in Warwickshire in 1841 even if restricted to Aston or Birmingham.
I can't find a tree.
Regards,
Dave
