I gave up trying to use filters on FS to find them in census.

Looking for Thomas and Catherine in 1841, 1861 and later census.

Son James arrived in Australia by Nov 1882 but arrival not yet found.

Thanks,

Dave

I think this may be them in 1841, living with Thomas's mother

Thanks Emeltee.

Now this one appears with odd formatting.

Son James arrived in Australia by Nov 1882 but arrival not yet found.

That should be April 1863. He married twice.

I can't find the family in 1861 census.

Dave

 

[DaveHam9]

I can't find James in shipping records. Not Bee or Parsee or Agricola.

Deaths in NSW for a Catherine Smith 25x with father = John

Deaths in NSW for a Thomas Smith 14x with father = James

Looks like this is Mary A, aged 4 in 1851.

It seems Thomas and children Mary Ann and James arrived. Don't know about Catherine and son John.

James and Mary Ann married Napier/Leiper siblings.

Not the easiest people to get a lead on, for anything, though Smith doesn't help

Geoff

This did help.

That may or may not be on the Sydney CofE PR. Not the Established Church.

Not sure, Dave.. there is a public tree that has the marriage as 'Parramatta Wesleyan Parsonage'.

Geoff

 

[DaveHam9]

Registered in Sydney.

The Napiers were Presbyterian from Scotland. Can't see it being Wesleyan and in Parramatta and the marriage notice to be so far out.
