Australia Lookups completed / Census Lookup : Allwright 1841-1851 Australia

« on: Tuesday 23 August 05 14:05 BST (UK) »

Does anyone happen to have (or know if there was) any Census' done in Australia between 1841-1851? Would appreciate a look up please.

If so, I'm in search of
Family Name: ALLWRIGHT
First Names: Henry (and possibly Thomas, Frederick, John or Sarah)

Details are very scant - basically the ALLWRIGHT family were in the UK 1841 Census (Heybridge England) but they were gone by 1851, however Henry was in Victoria Australia in February 1851 (his first marriage).

Can only presume that he(they) arrived in Victoria from England, however it could have easily been any of the other ports.

Would appreciate any assistance.

Cheers

Australia Lookups completed / Shipping lookup : Allwright 1841-1851

« on: Tuesday 23 August 05 13:51 BST (UK) »

Shipping is not my forte and I have been unable to find any records for the mid 1800's (from England to Australia).

Family Name: ALLWRIGHT
First Names: Henry (and possibly Thomas, Frederick, John or Sarah)

Details are very scant - basically the ALLWRIGHT family were in the 1841 Census (Heybridge England) but they were gone by 1851, however Henry was married in Victoria Australia in February 1851.

Presuming the port that he(they) left from was in England and they docked in Victoria, although it could have been SA or even Tasmania.

If anyone has shipping records for the years of 1841-1851 that they could look up for me, I would be most appreciative.

Cheers

Norfolk Lookup Requests / Look up please - Durant (or Durrant)

« on: Saturday 20 August 05 15:16 BST (UK) »

G'day!

I'm looking for a JOHN HENRY DURANT (or DURRANT).
Born abt 1819 - Norfolk England

I don't have any information on his parents or siblings.

He was tried in March 1837 (for stealing a pair of trousers) and sent to Australia as a convict in October 1837. Departure Port was Norfolk, Norwich.

I'm trying to find out who his parents were and locate the rest of his family (if any).

Possibly through 1821 or 1831 Census (if they exist)? Or Birth Registrations.
It's a real stab in the dark at this stage.

Thanks - from Australia
