Hi Moolerr

Thank you for the information. Our Arthur Charles Wemyss died in 1905 - so this is probably his son, also an Arthur Charles Wemyss.

According to Mariners and Ships in Australian Waters site - the Joseph Somes left Hobart on 5th June, 1846 for Port Jackson (arrived 11th June). On board were 120 rank and file of 67th Regiment, 19 women, 14 boys and 13 girls. (no names are given). This would have been after the ship landed its convict passengers in Hobart.

The 1847 voyage of the Joseph Somes had members of the 65th Regiment that were proceeding  to New Zealand.

I am also trying to locate this gentleman. He is a ancestor of my husband that we have been trying to locate for a number of years without success.

I have most of the information that has been mentioned.

With regards to the Joseph Somes, I was wondering if he was with the regiment on board? I haven't look into this. Not sure where to start?

I will be going to Tasmania in a few weeks and am hoping to do some research in regards to Sarah Bull, Arthur Charles's wife.
