I know this is five years too lte but do you sill want any stories of Parkhurst boys in NZ.
My great great grndfather was William Thorne who came out on the St george.
I have his life story if it is still of any use to you.
He was one of the success stories.

How stupid of Me!!!!

Henry Carrr was born about 1812 and married in Eastwood Notts on 19th July 1842

I have complete records of Henry (my direct line) from Henry on.

His marriage certificate notes hi father as Joseph Carr - Clerk.
I have a record of the existence of William and Joseph Jnr in a 'story' written by Henry's son - but he does not give dates or places etc except the very general note that William was a Clerk and Joseph a hotel keeper in Moira neither does he indicate if thy were older or younger than Henry.

I hope this limited information helps!!

Thank you Anne Ashford
