Thanks Sue.
I've just realised that when the ships master enters his passengers names theyre not always first name last name but be could the reverse and then the first name might be entered as an intial anyway. So lots more ferreting around to confirm the arrival date of Abraham and his family.

The above document is a Memorial for Letters of Naturalization and is a single page. I wasn't aware that there should be a Stat Dec. I'll go back to its source and see what else there is

Thanks - that helps. The certificate states that Ellen was born in Beruit.

The online resource doesn't show the fine detail of this information. If it is available I'll have to dig deeper.

shanreagh not really surprised that there are Khouri in NZ as the immigration records for Aus show many with that surname coming from Syria and then Labanon from the mid 1800's onwards, so some in NZ are likely related somewhere along the way. Whether or not they realte to Abraham I dont know.

The Jago(e)s are pretty interesting in their own right as they married into the Rogers family via Sinclair James, which is why the interest there. There has been a lot of them in Tasmania but where they fit I dont know at the moment.

Corbins relate to the Rogers and come from Jersey. The Corbins I know of are inVictoria and Western Australia.
