Yes I realise that ... but there's no indication of gender nor mention of George's wife with him on that voyage ... it of course is likely BUT  not yet confirmed from other official documents that Bertha was one of those 2 children   assuming that is the 'right' George and that Amelia accompanied him with the 2 ... Fingers crossed her dc will have her number of years in each of the colonies ? 

Cheers JM

The Augusta Jessie passenger list shows that George Glover was contracted:

GLOVER George age 31yrs, marr, 2 chn, farm lab, By Whom Engaged & Rate of Wages- George Miller Esq. SYDNEY, £30 pa & rations.

I wonder if finding George Miller Esq. Sydney will give further clues as to their movements?

Well, not sure, but this seems to be George Miller Esq getting married in Sydney by the Presbyterian Rev'd.

And this could be the NSW BDM ref for the special licence Vol 74A line 2983 with Sarah A's surname as Carmichael
And the usual NSW BDM ref from the Presbyterian register entry Vol 75, line 277  with Sarah A's surname as Bailey

Perhaps George Glover's services were needed for either her properties or for his.... as I think he was an Accountant involved in the Bank of NSW.... but I could well be way off track....

So, err ... who was this chap, surnamed Glover whose death was registered at Walgett in 1883?

Theodore GLOVER, son of George and Amelia...  # 10267   Perhaps he was Bertha's babe raised in his youth by  George and Harriet Grace, and he knew that Harriet was not his mum....  Oh dear,  I am speculating again...     PMost likely it is just a co-incidence in the names ...

Oops, adding and perhaps I am also getting off topic ... Sorry...

Cheers,  JM

Hi
I think we have a Theodore and a Theophilus.

There a Ship the  Otago   from Otago NZ  ( where Tandy died) arriving 20 Aug 1852
on the ship's  passenger list  is  Mr & Mrs GLOVER & 4 sons & 5 daughters.
This is right time period we need them to be returning to Australia, BUT who are the 4 sons and 5 daughters?
