Australia / Re: Benjamin Bowater 1862 arrival Aust - convict or free settler?
« on: Sunday 01 March 26 13:34 GMT (UK)  »
In regards to the 2 sons, joseph and Benjamin,  I have a Baptism for Joseph 4 Dec 1844 in Dudley with Phoebe as mother - FHL fim no 1470598.

A birth index for Benjamin from free BMD  1844 - vol 18 page 559. Both sons are on the 1851and 1861 Census with parents Benjamin and Phoebe.

This would be Joseph's birth registration.  There would have to be some question as to whether Benjamin was his father considering the amount of time that elapsed between his birth and the marriage in 1844.

RHODES, JOSEPH
No mother's maiden surname (illegitimate)
GRO Reference: 1841  D Quarter in DUDLEY UNION  Volume 18  Page 264

Benjamin's birth:

BOWATER, No first name
Mother's maiden surname: RHODES 
GRO Reference: 1844  D Quarter in DUDLEY UNION  Volume 18  Page 244

The birth reference you have for Benjamin is incorrect if it is supposed to be this one.

BOWETER, BENJAMIN
Mother's maiden surname: HICKMANS 
GRO Reference: 1844  M Quarter in DUDLEY UNION  Volume 18  Page 339 (not 559)

He is James in 1901, not William James.  In 1911 his wife Mary completed the census.

I was thinking the same as Sue - I wonder how they would have had the means to return to England.  I think they left Tasmania for Port Phillip in 1848 on the Elizabeth, though Lydia is recorded as 'Jane' on the passenger list.
