wow!

that's some pretty interesting details there!

just trying to wrap my head around it all. It's all very interesting given my grandmother was so adamant about other info that is in complete contrast with all of this! :P heehee.

obviously one cannot stand in the way of facts as they are.  Though Tonga could fit in with my nan's theory that Rosetta was of maori descent and adopted. I know Tongan's arent's maori's but they are and islander and could have been confused for one or the other back in the day i guess!

Well done Jenn

Now we know that Sarah was born in Lowestoft I might be able to find her on  the  1891 census in the UK,just before she and the kids and mum left for Oz.

Watch this space  ;)

Have just taken another look at the ships list and I suppose that it could say Mrs S Waghorn at a push  ;D

Am sending Belinda a PM about it in a sec.

Well done with the 1861...I suppose we should go for the full set now then Maria  ;D
