Ok have had a look at Samuel Henry's death certificate & it gives an approximate date of arrival in Australia as about March 1886.

His death certifcate - 25 Dec 1896 states his "how long in Australasian Colonies or States" as 10 3/4 years in NSWales.

Does this help???

Hi

I found Henry Pearce 29 ; wife Ellen 29; with Catherine 5, on the Parthia in 1886.

No Roland noted however the three names are very close to those you are looking for.

Note
my experience is that there are some inaccuracies with the trancriptions. My family is listed minus one child and the copies I recieved from NSW archives did not mention this son. However on finally looking at the records myself this son was there just missed in the transcription!!!! and the page he is on was not one of those sent to me.

regards

Robyn

Hi regross,

I did come across that as well, however on Samuel's death certificate (1896), his daughter Catherine Constance (or Constance Catherine) was the age 9.

Unfortunately we have to disregard this listing as little "Catherine" was not born, let alone 5 at the time.

:( Thank you for the effort though, I really hope they weren't missed. :(
