Hi Rhonda,

The 1847 arrival of Edward CUNNINGHAM is listed on Victoria's PROV site http://www.access.prov.vic.gov.au/public/PROVguides/PROVguide023/PROVguide023.jsp  under "Index to Assisted British Immigration 1839-1871".  The microfiche for these shipping records are held by most libraries and family history societies.

I asked about Elizabeth KENNEDY as I thought they may have met elsewhere.  Have you seen that the Tas Archives have the Elizabeth KENNEDY who was born in 1842 as an infant death in 1845?  ???

Edward Cunningham was not his name when he left England. He was a convict named John Thompson and changed his name after arriving in Tasmania

Hi darcie12,

Can you tell us a bit more about this John THOMPSON?  There were lots of convicts with this name, which one was he?

Hi Darcie,
Thanks for the information. Several people have been searching for Edward Cunningham's arrival without any success. How did you connect John Thompson as being Edward Cunningham? Also do you have any information regarding his marriage to Elizabeth Kennedy?

Thanks again, ronnynell

I have no personal interest in this family - contributed to the forum with newspaper notice of the death. Ronnynel would probably be keen to know of your connection to this family.
