My records were obtained and confirmed from:-

1/.  Northern Lighthouse Board

2/.  Scotland's People

3/.  The Bell Rock Lighthouse Museum website

4/.  I actually have a photograph of David Spink (died 1859) in Arbroath

5/.  Various other publications e.g.  Stevenson Family History and biographies

We might be talking about two different people here??


Cheers

 Plenty of links and information available.  I am aware some Spink descendants came to New Zealand but nothing to Australia.
