Shipping Lookup
« on: Sunday 24 September 06 13:03 BST (UK) »
Hi there,

wondering if SKS could do a shipping lookup for me. I have Hugh MUIRHEAD arriving in Australia on Glen Isla in 1857, but would like to know his details. Can anyone help????

Cheers,
Donna.

hello   there

you  can  purchase  copy  of  his  arrival from  state  records
or  Laurence Turtle  a  transcription  agent.

http://www.records.nsw.gov.au/indexes/quicksearch.aspx?k=muirhead&scope=2

unless someone  is  going  to  the  NSW State Records and can  do  the Look  up  for  you.

it is interesting  to note  that  another Hugh Muirhead  also arrived  that year  on  the John Bunyan  aged 20   with  his  family.

hope  this  info  helps  you.

regards Jenn

Hi Jenn,

thank you. Yes, this Hugh is a cousin of the Hugh that arrived on the John Bunyan in the same year. The uncle/father, Robert Purdie MUIRHEAD was my 2 x great grandfather. He listed his nephew as already being in the colony. I was hoping to verify details of Hugh's parents etc. He seemed to disappear one he arrived in Australia. I'm thinking he may have left NSW.

Thanks,
Donna.

Hi True Cruiser,
Found this entry for the Glen Isla, but there is no Hugh Muirhead listed on it. :(
