Birth SEABROOK JOHN HENRY 15166/1874 GEORGE MARGARET MUSWELLBROOK

http://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/156858431
Mudgee Guardian and North-Western Representative (NSW : 1890 - 1954) Mon 25 Jan 1915 Page
SEABROOK— KENT.
A very quiet wedding took place
at St. Andrew's Church of England,
Coolah on Saturday, January 2,
when Miss Emily Kent, the eldest
daughter of Mr. A. Kent of Gul-
gong was married to Mr. John H.
Seabrook, eldest son of Mr. George
Seabrook, late of Coolah and Leadville,
the Rev. William Hotston officiating.

Ok, that connects the births in Muswellbrook to Coolah.

Looks as though birth reg are missing for Walter and Alice.

The Maitland Mercury and Hunter River General Advertiser (NSW : 1843 - 1893) Sat 2 Feb 1856 p.2
Births.
At her residence, near Muswell Brook, on the 29th
January, the wife of Mr. William Seabrook, of twin

Can't see that in the index.

Thanks Val.

During the trial William said he brought stuff from England.

No birth reg for Walter or Alice. The two gaps are large enough for more than one birth in each. Wonder who else we might be missing.

SEABROOK MARIA ELLEN 19396/1880 GEORGE MARGARET MUSWELLBROOK
Walter James b. abt 1882
SEABROOK ADA GRACE 14804/1885 GEORGE MARGARET DUBBO
Alice in 1913 roll so born before 1892
SEABROOK MABEL 10396/1892 GEORGE W MARGARET CASSILIS

The 1855 marriage ??? Wonder if the date is an error in the index. Such errors exist. I have one that has 1845 and it's actually 1849.

Tree has note in Marriage saying married 29 Jan 1855 Butterick This is near Maitland, I think that maybe the couple had been together from England and finally married. She is called Mary A Pecker on the certificate

Thanks Val.

They look to be unassisted by this site.

arrival: Barhampooter
Origin: London 1841 Apr 19
Destination: Sydney 1841 Aug 7
Background
Date Item Details Source
name Burhampooter grk
primary source AO 4/4863 [1321]
primary source AO 4/4788p98 [2134]
primary source AO 4/4788p308 [2134]

No passenger list on that site.

I can't find a Seabrook in 1841 on the Assisted index.

Entering only the vessel Barhampooter/Burhampooter gets no hits.

I think that film is not at the State Library. Only at NSW Records at Kingswood.
