Title: Emigration from Cheshire!
Post by: bmwgem on Friday 05 October 18 16:01 BST (UK)

Hi
I am trying to find out any info on a Mary (nee Shallcross) and Thomas Mills who emigrated to Australia in 1855 I'm told. I believe that Thomas had been married prior to a Martha Bell but am unaware of whether the children he had with her went with him.
Mary would have been 37 and Thomas 47 if all my dates are correct.

Not finding much but there is a possible marriage in Cheshire 1849 that has names including Thomas Mills and Mary Shallcross
