Queensland Cemetery Records on fs give Jessie's age at death as 84 therefore born c1864

 

[DaveHam9]

Thanks emeltee.

Looks like a birth in Qld. soon after arrival and no reg or reg not in index for some reason.

"Benjamin ROSSITER must be the guy who had married Zillah BAYNTON ..."
"Benjamin & Zillah emigrated to Australia on the 'Strathfieldsaye' arrived Melbourne 1840."


I'll return to this tomorrow to sort out Benjamin and Zillah.
