Notes:
Sailed from Plymouth on the ship '"Walmer Castle" on 12 September 1848, arriving in Sydney with his wife & two sons on 30 December 1848.

Spouse Mother: MARGARET MCGAW (McDAWL) - 632
Spouse Notes:
We have a copy of Sarah's wedding certificate which lists her as Sarah Calandar McDawl Diamond.
The name Coleman has special significance for us in that we believe an Emily was adopted by Richard and Sarah. The information we have is the birth certificate of Jessie Ethel Cheeseman dob 27/1/1882, Emily Russell's daughter. Jessie's birth certificate provides the fathers name Alfred Cheeseman, date of marriage as 21/6/1868. The mother Emily is listed as 'Emily Russell formerly Coleman'. Her age is given as 29 giving an approximate date of birth of 1853. We have never been able to locate birth details for Emily either as Russell or Coleman. The rumours passed down by Jessie Ethel were that her mother had been adopted.
( her defacto at the time of her murder in 1900) as it suited her.
