By the way, thanks very much for the welcome.

Does anyone have the full army record of George MacDonald - he seems to have been everywhere ?

Kind regards,

You can tell I'm a newbie  :-[ .  OK, well just for the heck of it -

No, I cannot tell that you are a newbie .... I can only tell that you are a newbie to RChat ... (see the number of posts under your avatar) ....  You could well be a very experienced researcher, simply just new to Rootschat.  and that you could be either Lisa or Leigh...

Cheers,  JM  :D

Well, I am a fairly experienced research but not very professional  ;D.  Well, habit will out but I'm not overly fond of my first name...... so don't tell anybody  ;)

Hello Lisa,
Don't have too much on Eliza Ann and her family but quite a lot on James Ellis and his descendants if you are interested.

Tracing a Flora McDonald who I believe was on board the "Bengal Merchant" en route to Australia 1834 - 1835 along with Captain George McDonald. The Sydney Herald Mon 2 Feb 1835 Shipping Intelligence lists passengers Capt McDonald, Mrs McDonald, Miss McDonald, Misses Eliza, Charlotte, Emily, Louisa, Sarah, and Elizabeth, Masters Charles and Richard McDonald. My Flora McDonald writes from on board to her brother J or I Denoon, hence I assumed she could have been Captain McDonalds wife. Can anyone shed any light. I still have the letter dated Nov 21st 1834.
Thanks all in anticipation......S R
