Title: Thomas & Andrew Jones 1850
Post by: RussJ on Monday 22 September 14 01:21 BST (UK)

I am searching for any information concerning Thomas and Andrew Jones who left Liverpool aboard the ship Condor in October of 1849 bound for Adelaide Australia. Any leads would be greatly appreciated.

many thanks in anticipation

Hi, I have read through your other posts re Andrew and Thomas. Have you any written evidence of their ages? What ages were given at their death for example and on Andrew's marriage certificate. If you can pinpoint their years of birth to within a couple of years we could perhaps narrow down the list of possible baptism records and 1841 census.

Also was Henry definitely Andrew's first born child? Perhaps Henry is also Andrew's father's name, something to keep in mind when looking for possible baptism records.

Many thanks for your interest.

I have 4 certificates relating to Andrew, 2 give a birth year of 1835 and 2 give 1837. I have a death certificate for Thomas which gives his date of birth as 1836.

Henry was definitely Andrew's first child born 1864, followed by William Gunn in 1866, James Andrew in 1870 and Mary Christina in 1877.
