Channel Islands Lookup Requests / Re: guernsey emigrants to australia

Hi!

That's amazing - someone actually answered me over a year later, I thought that post was dead and buried. Does the book contain further info such as marriage, deaths etc of the people from guernsey who came to australia? I actually found some of that info recently on this website:

Thanks Nevilles! - very helpful

I did find a DeGaris family but they were not of the names you gave. No Hamon families what so ever Im afraid :(
Are you 100% sure they went to South Australia?

Shanko

Shanko,

Thanks for checking that for me. Yes I am 99% sure they all emigrated to South Australia, as there is death records of all but Julia in Adeliade, and it is also known that Julia married someone from Adelaide!

I actually just thought of another couple of things that would be great if you could look up for me:

Death record of Julia DE GARIS (or possibly KING) DOB 26/10/1837 in Guernsey
Marriage record of Julia DE GARIS to AARON KING (of Adelaide)

and this one is a bit of a long shot but:

Death record of Joseph Garibaldi MOLD born 1862 in Walsall, Staffordshire, UK.

He married Emily Helen HAMON on 23/1/1890 in Adelaide and left her shortly after their daughter was born in 1891. Apparently he was a gambler among other things, but no one knows what happened to him. Also if you can think of any other types of records I could search for him, could you please let me know?

Thanks very much, I know that might have been a big ask.

Andy

Hi Shanko,

Just wondering if you could do a couple of lookups of shipping records for me:

The people I am looking for are:

Nicholas De Garis, born Guernsey 16/08/1833
Mary Hamon nay De Garis born Guernsey 30/06/1835
Peter Hamon born Sark 1831
Julia De Garis born Guernsey 1837

and possibly

Georgina De Garis born Guernsey 1801
Nicoulas De Garis born ??

I know the first 4 definitely emigrated to Australia possibly direct from Guernsey, or maybe via England/France??

Basically I would like to know when/how they arrived in Australia and any other details available. So I guess the things to look up would be:

·   Official passenger lists mainly of immigrants arriving in South Australia under United Kingdom assisted passage schemes 1847 - 1886

·   Shipping - Hodge IndexPart 1: Arrivals 1837 - 1845
Part 3: Arrivals 1846 - 1855
Part 5: Arrivals 1856 - 1859 November



If you could check this stuff for me it would be sensational!!!!



Thanks very much,

Andy  :D

Channel Islands Lookup Requests / guernsey emigrants to australia

Hi all,

I was hoping someone would have access to the book "Guernsey Emigrants to Australia 1828 - 1899" to look up a few people for me:

The people I am looking for are:

Nicholas De Garis, born Guernsey 16/08/1833
Mary Hamon nay De Garis born Guernsey 30/06/1835
Peter Hamon born Sark 1801
Julia De Garis born Guernsey 1837

and possibly

Georgina De Garis born Guernsey 1801
Nicoulas De Garis born ????

I know the first 4 all went to Adelaide (don't know which yr), unsure if the last 2 left the islands. I would just like to know what yr they left and any other info.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers,

Andrew
