Thanks for all the help, But I think we will have to eliminant some of those. The rest is great.
Have you a date as to when Henry Godfrey and his family travelled back to Tasmania
I don't know when she moved to Tasmania. But I think Henry Godfrey could be meet her in London in middle of 1850s. After Henry's wife's death, Henry and his children moved back to Tasmania in 1858. So Harriet might be moved after 1858 to Tasmania to join them.
to work for Henry at the Horse and Jockey Launceston, other note is when she was 14? 1852?
Have you found Harriet Wilson on any passenger lists?
No I am still trying to find where to look for this.
Where there any witnesses to Harriet's marriage?
Her witnesses were Horatio Nelson Godfrey (my great great grandfather) and his sister, Mary Louisa Godfrey so they should be Harriet's cousins. Another one was Charles Harris that is unknown to me. -Steven.
So this messes up the census data if she was gone before 1861. Maybe I will have to try and find some orphanage records are these on the census?
