You can search for details of Tasmanian ancestors at the tasmanian archives
http://www.archives.tas.gov.au/nameindexes

There is a convict John Pulford arriving in 1836 who could be your man. He came on a ship from London, unfortunately the Old Bailey records only go to 1834 online so not there at the minute.

There is a record for permission to marry for John Pulford and Emma Fowler, so this seems to be the couple Jenn found. John is listed as being free (if he was a convict his term may have expired). Emma arrived in 1844.

For a very reasonable fee the Tas archives will copy the records for you (or you can visit if in Tasmania & for a smaller fee copy them yourself  ) The BDM registers to 1900 are also kept at the archives.

Seven children are listed on the Colonial families data base - the six Jenn listed & also Thomas 1849
There seem to be many grandchildren  Some of the children stayed in Tasmania.

Hi Jenn,

Thanks once again for your hard work.
Two questions:  Was the dates for John's and Emma's children their birth dates or christening dates?

and I can only Find a marriage connection for a William Cummins with a Margaret Rice. I cant find a Catherine Oriely.

PS. Sam Pulford,s Mum is Emma Fowler.

Cheers

S.k.

you have started another thread with this post!!


yes it is their birth dates

yes Emma Fowlers is Samuel Pulford's mother

I can only  give  you  the parents by  the  indexs  and that is what it does say her mothers name is and there  are are number of children deaths  to William Cummins and Catherine Orilley  and a number born in victoria but not catherine  she may not have been registered or born coming here



the marriage of Samuel Pulford and Catherine Cummins was in 1875 reg no 3366
he was born in Tasmania and she in Castlemaine
you can get a transcipt of the marriage  and that  she definately tell  you  her parents
