England / Re: The National Archives
« on: Saturday 28 September 24 13:05 BST (UK) »
Thank you all for your replies. I was just trying to get an idea how much it would cost to get the record. I understand that there are costs to check records etc, but was wondering whether it would charge for each document or the set (£8.40 or £42) plus the additional charges to get copies sent via email. Thank you theirchild for the informative reply to help me decide on whether to get this document. You made it so much clearer for me to understand how TNA works.

Hi
I found a record (ADM 73/187/41) that I am interested in, that was on TNA but it has not yet been digitised. As I am in Australia, I cannot go in to view. I see you can request from them but I don't understand their terms. It cost £8.40 non-refundable for a page check (does that mean all 5 documents attached to this record) to see if they can send me a copy. Does this mean if I can get a copy, they are going to charge me more.

Thank you Jorose & bbart. It has been most helpful. I found the list of his children's names and it has confirmed to me that he was married twice.

The Common Room / Soldier - John Rudd
« on: Saturday 11 November 23 04:49 GMT (UK) »
I was wondering if there are any records available for soldiers in the early 1800's. I am interested to find out any information on John Rudd. He was a Quarter Master in the 7th Hussars. He died in 1836 in Nottingham.

Immigrants & Emigrants - General / Re: Ship - Senta 1885
« on: Monday 01 February 21 02:12 GMT (UK) »
Hi, I was researching on Trove and I finally found the Senta arriving in Melbourne. It left Christiana on 31st July 1886 and arrived in Hobson's Bay on 1st Nov 1886. I think this is more likely the route he took which must mean he was a year out on his Naturalization record. Is there a way I can find out who the crew were on this voyage.
Thanks, Lisa
Thanks, Lisa

Immigrants & Emigrants - General / Ship - Senta 1885
« on: Sunday 24 January 21 03:03 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for any info on the “Senta” which arrived in Victoria, Australia in November 1885. My ancestor Heinrich Johannes Christian Bernhard came to Australia on this ship according to his Naturalization record. I can’t seem to find any information about this ship. I was also curious why he was on this ship as it departed from Norway when he was born in Kappeln, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany which is about a 12 hours drive. I think he may have been a merchant seaman. I have also heard family stories saying he jumped ship but I haven't come across anything to prove this.
With thanks, Lisa

Limerick / William Connors
« on: Monday 11 January 21 01:38 GMT (UK) »
Hi, I am researching William Connors and trying to find information about his family in Limerick, Ireland but not sure if there will be any records available. He was born about 1822-1824 in Limerick to William Connors and Mary. He has 2 siblings, Michael and Mary. He was transported to Tasmania, Australia aboard Ratcliffe in 1845. He was tried in Limerick. Would there be any records available in Ireland in this time frame?

Devon / Re: William Callagan Where did they go?
« on: Wednesday 09 December 20 08:44 GMT (UK) »
Thank you for this information. It gives me something to work with. I noticed there was another marriage in 1864 of Martha (nee Deacon) Smith - widowed to Thomas Faulkner. Same father, Sampson Deacon. Martha had a daughter Sarah Smith b. 1862. Baptism shows only Martha, not William. It caught my eye, don't know if it is a coincidence but Mary Callagan (1828) came out as a convict as Mary Smith. Was then wondering if William did the same and changed his last name to Smith even though he married as a Callaghan. I will keep an open mind to see if anything will link. I have always had brickwalls with this line.
