William Bartlett BURT
« on: Friday 04 May 12 10:01 BST (UK) »
I am trying to trace the whereabouts of William Bartlett Burt and his wife Maria Teresa Furber. They married in Maiden Newton, Dorset, England in 1842 after which I can find no trace of them.

The IHR NSW has an online land record index listing a William Bartlett Burt with one entry with a Title deed in 1853.  I suspect this could be the person I am looking for.   An old internet post suggests that they went to Sydney and that Maria was a school teacher.  If this was the case it would explain why I have been unable to trace them in the UK.

Any help to confirm this family would be much appreciated.

Thanks for the very prompt response.  Does this refer to a sailing to Australia in 1849 when Maria was 29?  Sorry to need clarification.

Do you know the parents names for William and Maria?

Maria Teresa Burt nee Furber was the daughter of James Furber and Marcia Cull.

William Bartlett Burt was the son of Elias Burt.  Sorry I do't know his mother's name.

William B Burt 39, Clerk, Puddletown Dorsetshire, parents - James & Rebecca (both dead)

Maria T Burt 29, Anderson Dorset, parents - James & Marcia? Furber (both dead)

Both were C of E, could read & write, good health, no relations in Colony, no complaints

Ship Sarah arrived Sydney 10 December 1849

You mention Elias as William's father's name but James is listed on the passenger list
