From 1912 Launceston Examiner (Tasmansia) p3. my very brief summary of article.....'Edward K Duvanchelle made a famous swim in 1906.' He was fishing at Lahaina when boat overturned. Edward swam back to Molokai.

Jules Augustine Duvanchelle 1841, nsw - land transaction.(Society of Australian Geologists ref NSW.)

I found a Louis Benjamin S Deavauchelle m1815, Somme &  m1816, Chile..
(but I forgot to note where I found this)

 Duvauchelle/duvanchelle etc...I am looking for Frederick Duvanchelle...his origins/anything. His daughter, Louise, was b c1835 in nsw Australia. Louise Duvanchelle m Lamont nsw Australia & then Lamonts m Attenboroughs.  Some Lamonts and Attenboroughs had also been in N.Z so I think Fred could have some history there. Could Fred be a bro or son of Edouard, Jules or Louis?
I have found NSW newspaper articles & adds referring to Mr Duvanchelle and government records for J.A Duvauchelle...c1840s.
