EDIT:
The death reg has his age at death as 67y, so the above would be 5y out..

 

[DaveHam9]

Thanks Geoff.

Seems the arrival has him as Peter Campbell.

Death notice has 67 in 1877.

Thanks Geoff.

Seems the arrival has him as Peter Campbell.

Death notice has 67 in 1877.

Yeah, not the only discrepancy, a people search on the Ariadne has him as a crew member, cook.

Geoff

 

[DaveHam9]

He was a baker.

Birth reg may not be on SP. Nor marriage of his parents.
