The Masons arrival

http://www.theshipslist.com/ships/australia/norman1855.htm

No luck with the arrivals of the others into SA - may have entered via another state. No marriages or deaths either to these siblings from 1841. No death for Martha and as to George nothing certain. unfortunately the BISA does not mention Sarah's arrival.

BISA

Hi Houston,

You have to get over the passenger list for the BRITISH EMPIRE. That information you have been given is incorrect. That IS NOT your families arrival. I gave you the marriage of that couples daughter Sarah Ann to Isaac HEMPSTER on 1869 in Adelaide. IT IS NOT YOUR SARAH. Your Sarah's family are from Essex. Sorry that entry is the 1841 census.

Cheers Kris

Ok. Kris thanks for that - I shall put it away - what a shame as a lot off work for nothing but then no computers then
God Bless

Yes Houston,

Unfortunately mistakes are easily made. Somebody found that arrival for a Sarah with a father George and decided it was the correct family. That family had quite a few children in SA. I still do not have your families arrival nor do I see them in 1851. Looking at Civil registration entries the District is Dunmow. I see Harriet and George MASON's marriage and possible marriages for some of the family. The entire family may not have emigrated.

Cheers Kris
