Hi Jamison,

Looking at the census I see parents appear to be George and Elizabeth. (although I don't see Jane with the family) Was Jane single when they emigrated?

HENDERSON Thomas 20 status not recorded father George HENDERSON  = PARRINGTON Mary 17 status not recorded father Charles PARRINGTON 29 Mar 1859 Res of Charles Smith Cray Fish Creek Dist EnB Symbol A 37 99

Hi Jamison,

Looking for an arrival I find a Thomas aged 15 arriving in 1855 (looks like with his father George)  If so there does not appear to be a Jane aboard but I note Thomas's father George was a Shepperd in 1841 and a Farm lab - back in Wiltshire in 1851 so it seems to fit. (although if this is dad he seems to have put his age down a bit.

http://www.theshipslist.com/ships/australia/telegraph1855.htm

The man on the Telegraph has been wrongly enterred in the BISA. We have encountered him previously in some very complex lookups (getting more interesting by the minute)

This is the BISA entry which seems to be re two George HENDERSONS

HENDERSON George born about 1796 Wex IRL died 30 May 1867 Adelaide SA arrived 1855 aboard the TELEGRAPH 0cc Piano Tuner, Labourer res: Hindmarsh rel Prot
married unknown children son, 2 daus

and here is the other entry re these peoples George who was a piano tuner married to Regina

HENDERSON George arrived  by 1842 residence Thebarton rel  Rc
married Regina Maria
Children Theophiley Chas 1842, Claude 1844

There are some long threads about this George (He was a piano tuner and that is his death date in 1867, though it took a bit to get to it)

Cheers Kris

Thomas and George arriving 1855 fits.

The other George`s do not think so.

I have George dying 1875 in his Daughter`s house (Poore)
