Assisted Immigrants Lookup "William Rodger 1838 CRAIGIE

[jlmack1]

Yes Judith, I find the quarantine centre very informative and interesting.

I thought perhaps if Elizabeth was sick, and Janet had also been on the ship, he may have 'made friends' quickly so as to have a 'child minder' on hand.

Thanks for all your help.

(Strangely there is no death record in NSW for Isabella so I can't account for the two Isabella's)

There doesn't appear to be a death record for Janet up to 1940, however there is a possible marriage record for a Janet Craigie (as the middle initial is I.......I wonder if her middle name was Isabella?)

Thank you again Siouxsie and Kris,

It is just great to have you finding so much information.

Dear Lee,
Do you have the information about his children from his first marriage? If not, head to the NSW BDM's and you can look up their marriages, deaths, births of their children etc.

I know what you mean about exciting when you get a whole bunch of information........it's fabulous!!

Enjoy putting it all togther and putting flesh onto your ancestor's history.

Cheers
Siouxsie
