Well that puts a lot of assumptions in doubt, we have assumed Sarah was Norwegian and she just was being silly in putting carabu land. In another censes it would seem she has said she was from Scotland. Thanks.

I will need a little time to find the other reference but it looks like Norway is the answer however when I "googled" carubuland it had no answer other than Alberta which is possible. Thank you very much for your time, I will close here.

hi, Carabuland is also stated on her Christening in 1820 at the same time as her brother Henry Charles Johnson in Tower hamlets. It is vey hard to read but her parents were John Johnson and Mary?

My ancestor Sarah Isabella Johnson was born in 1818 in Carabu land and states this place on censes. Can it be Scandanavia or Canada. Thank you.

What do I definitely know about John Johnson. That is hard to say BUT I have found his son's baptism record naming John Johnson, mariner, Tower Hamlets, as father. I have this son's indenture papers with John Johnson's name. and I have from the 41 Census that John Johnson was living with his daughter in Tower hamlets, and finally I have entries in the dreadnaughts seamans hosp BUT I am not sure which is our man.
Thanks

yes, that is what I suspected, so wish it was Captain as this man is difficult to find.
incase you can help further:
John Johnson
dates +/- 5 1790 to 1840
possibly born Norwary
possibly lived near wharfs/Thames if mariner
possibly had son Henry Charles and daughter Sarah Isobella
wife Mary unknown

thanks Tavy

Family History Beginners Board / Captain John Johnson
« on: Sunday 24 January 21 06:41 GMT (UK)  »
I have come to find several John Johnson's having been admitted to the Dreadnoughts Seamen's Hospital and in the details one column is "Quality". Most men have AB in this column which I take is able body but one John Johnson had "carp". I was hoping it meant Captain which would have helped my search as my ancestor was supposedly a Sea Captain (born about 1790) and possibly Norwegian. But carp could have also meant the ships carpenter!
Can you advise me as to CARP.

Thank you, I would imagine the children I am looking for were born in Bellshill area from 1901 to 1910. Their surname could be anything but Brusokas is close.
I have a Joseph but none others.
Thanks and more help is needed. It appears Peter Brusokas (father) went back to US in 1910, he may have become a sailor and Ona then married a MR Savage.
