Hi All,

I was investigating John Stephenson and his wife Susan as they appear next to and are sponsored by the the same people as my Samuel and Ann Good on their Indian Bonds.

Samuel was sent to erect Machinery for three years from Feb 1829. And was ordered to travel forth with (immediately) to India on his Covenant.

Their eldest son Alfred Edward Ulrich Good was born in Calcutta in 1830. He is my  direct Good relation. - Bruce Harold Goode b1940 - Alfred Richard Goode b1910 - Walter Henry Good b1867 - all Queensland, Australia - Alfred Edward Ulrich Good (b1830, Calcutta, India) - John Samuel Good (abt 1800-1855, New South Wales (Now Queensland) Australia.
Samuel was a Baker and Confectioner according to his bounty arrival record on the Camden in 1836. Of which he was listed on the manifest as Nathaniel Good.

And from reading this i was wondering whether it was for JS's company.

I note that John Atlantic Stephenson was born and named after the ocean he was born on.

And that they were on the "ARGO" would anyone know if there is a copy of the passenger list available.?

I am currently searching through English and Indian court records to locate any further information on my couple and where they came from. As all inhabitants were required to go through the court system prior to 1832. When policy changed.

i can be contacted directly

hmm so that means she died in Victoria not queensland?

That could be why she wasnt listed in the qld index.

Thank you

Thanks Christine!

Hey Christine

Its ok it will all work it self out eventually,

the reason i questioned it was the original i was given read as though (alfred senior) he had changed his name on baptism but then you sent me information about Alfred Richard partner so that counter acted the previous thought of the name change.

as these people are all gone it makes it hard to decipher where everything fits in and we are all doing the best we can. And i can imagine some of the old script hard to read and also these Goode's! like to put on the E in some names and not others so lord only know how that works! hhehe

Thanks for you help

Hi Christine,

Thank you

MA is the registration of the marriage record number in Queensland. Australia.

The 1818 date was not clear in the transcript i received the details from.

Its possible that he changed religion so he could marry his girl i guess.

It was Susanna Gill who was the wife of Alfred Edwin Good according to the birth register on the Queensland Pioneer index 1829-1889

Thanx again

Jewelly
