Hi Janie

John and Isabella were my Grt Grt Grandmother Mary Jane Barr's parents.
Do you know which ship they came to Australia on?? Family legend has it that Mary Jane was born on the ship coming into Sydney Harbour. I have only been able to find her Baptism, not a birth certificate.

Hi All
Just to add to the conversation re John Barr. John Barr born 1822, married Isabella Barr born 1832, in 1850.  My records say that John and Isabella were cousins.  John's parents were John Barr and Jean Calder (perhaps step mother) and Isabella's parents were William Barr and Jean/Jane Browne. Death certificates mention they were born Johnstone  Renfrewshire Scotland. They were my grandfathers parents.
