Hello from another GRUNDY relative! John GRUNDY is my 4th-great-grandfather and my line descends from his son, Joseph GRUNDY. :)

I'm very new to genealogy research, so was really excited to find this group (I stumbled across it while doing a Google search on John GRUNDY and Maria HALES). Has anyone managed to discover which passenger ship they travelled on to Tasmania? I have spent a large chunk of today searching for them, but haven't had much luck!

Hi and Welcome  :)

They arrived in 1842 on the Royal Saxon:

John GRUNDY, wife, and four children (page 15)

The two older children:

Willm GRUNDY (page 16)

Mary Ann GRUNDY (page 91)

Debra — you're a GEM! Thanks soooo much for that info ... obviously I was looking in all the wrong places (much to learn)! You've made my day.  :)
