Emma, wife of James Beames died 4 Feb 1880 at Dublin SA, this raises a question regarding Clarissa Beames nee Foxwell, who arrived with James on the Fairlie in 1840. There does not appear to be an SA marriage record for James and Emma, nor a death for Clarissa.

AS  previously stated  Clarissa  wasn't his  wife  as  there  is this  marriage

JOHNSON Peter, adult, married BEAMES Clarissa Foxwell, ~18, on 1843-02-12 at St John, Ade

I have been looking at this again this morning as Clarissa Foxwell Johnson married my 2nd g-grandfather Henry Pritchard. 

Clarissa’s marriages
Clarissa Beames married Peter Johnson 12th February in Adelaide - Dist: Ade, Symbol: E, Book: 9, Page: 11
Clarissa Johnson married Henry Pritchard (widow) 30 Dec 1863 in Adelaide - Dist: Ade, Book: 56, Page: 62

Clarissa Foxwell Beames parents have been a bit of a puzzle.
James Beames is her father and there is a question as to her Mother. The shipping records indicate that her mother is Clarissa but the death registration indicates that it is Emma (Beans). 

It appears that Clarissa and Emma were sisters. Their parents are Joseph and Elizabeth Foxwell.
Clarissa born 09 Feb 1791 Wotton under Edge, Gloucestershire, England FindMyPast Archive reference TNA/RG/4/3564
Emma born 17 Jun 1795 Wotton under Edge, Gloucestershire, England FindMyPast Archive reference TNA/RG/4/3564
According to the above information the birth date for Emma would make her the correct age at death. So possibly the death record is correct??

I have world subscriptions to two genealogy research sites and cannot afford to subscribe to another. However I have found on another site the following and I cannot obtain more information without paying another subscription. I am wondering if someone could check this out for me please.

Groom: James Beames
Bride: Emma Foxwell
County: Gloucestershire
Year: 1822
Banns

Sorry this is a bit long winded but would appreciate any help.

Jen is right

Clarissa Foxwell Beames parents have been a bit of a puzzle.
James Beames is her father and there is a question as to her Mother. The shipping records indicate that her mother is Clarissa but the death registration indicates that it is Emma (Beans). 

I interpret the transcribed shipping information as James BEAMES, his wife , [not named] his dau Clarissa Foxwell, and siblings.   According to the mistranscribed death registration which I found, James wife was Emma.

I suggest you search some of the resources for further info.  7 and 29 refer to JOHNSON.

A public tree has the marriage by banns - the compiler appears to be a FOXWELL researcher.

BEAMES James
FOXWELL Emma

I think there has been some poor research and the online trees bar one, appear to have copied from one another.

Have you searched family search.org - the transcribed parish records
