Thanks for the clarification regarding the list.

This is all a bit messy as Rebecca re-married shortly after her first husband passed.  She married a John Cooper in 1858.  She then emigrated to Christchurch NZ around 1880 according to her death certificate.  Passed away in 1894 and is buried with her daughter Martha Dunn (nee Sims), Martha's husband Charles Dunn, and their son Joseph Henry Dunn (my great grandfather).  Martha and Charles married in Sydney.

Rebecca's death certificate lists both her husbands and places of marriage as Sydney.  Indicates her place of birth as Ireland, but not the actual location.  Her parents are listed as Robert Irvine and Sarah Noble.

Any help really appreciated as I'm struggling with this one!

Not sure Jamjar.  The permission to marry does not mention her parents.  It clearly indicates the Adam Lodge.  Is the passenger list complete?

Thanks so much for your help and advice Majm!!  The form is in long-hand so difficult to read.  Agree the two names can be easily confused.

Just wondering if anyone has come across the name Irvine in relation to the Adam Lodge? I note that there are a number of Irwin's in the passenger list, which from what I understand is interchangeable with Irvine.

I'm looking for a Rebecca Irvine who married a John Sims in Sydney in 1848.  The form granting them permission to marry indicates she arrived on the Adam Lodge a free individual.  She would have been born around 1825.   

Many thanks for any advice.
