This is the first topic I have initiated on Rootschat, and I have been searching unsuccessfully for the answers for years.
1. I am seeking the arrival date (and name of ship) when my great-great-grandparents arrived in South Australia. Henry and Josepha Bawden (nee Matthews) arrived in South Australia with two sons, John Hugh and Samuel, some time between the birth of Samuel in England in March 1855, and the birth of their first Australia child Mary Emma near Kapunda in December 1858. I have searched many shipping records but to no avail!
2. I am also seeking the date/place of death and burial place of my great-great-grandmother, Josepha Bawden. The family lived near Moonta (her last child was born there in August 1868) and they later possibly moved to the Port Adelaide area. Her husband Henry died in at Glanville in 1909, and I was told she had predeceased him, but this may not be so. I have searched for her death under Bowden and also Joseph but can find nothing.
All help will be appreciated.
