There were other children born to them in Victoria who died as infants also.

The OP needs to clarify how they are connected to above marriage then perhaps we could help further.

Perhaps this is the death of Peter FARRELL in Victoria. If so, he is buried at White Hills cemetery where some of his children are also buried.

Peter FARRELL 55yrs born DUBLIN d. 1872 #2778
Father: Peter
Mother: Lucinda not known

White Hills Cemetery:

What I'm after is a way to find out if Peter Farrell, married to Rosanna McIvor, is the same person who arrived on the Clyde. His death cert has him in Australia for 41 years. I know that info on death certs is not always accurate, so that would have him arriving in Australia around 1831. The spelling of his name was corrected in other documents. Peter Farroll arriving on the Clyde is identified later as Peter Farrell. There is also discrepancy with his age.

Do you have samples of his handwriting to compare with his signature on SA marriage cert?

I am finding quite a few "Peter FARRELL" chaps in the various colonies.    I provided the alternative spelling so that others with other resources may find it useful.  :)

I didn't purchase the SA wedding cert, as there did not seem to be any information on it, from the "preview". I looked at what was on wedding certs of that era and they did not provide the details that later certificates did. Its 1868 before they put the father on and 1937 before they put the mothers maiden name on. His father is Peter Farrell and Lucinda for the mother, I'm not sure if that helps as far as finding out if he was transported. Birth place listed as Dublin on death cert and the certificate of freedom has Dublin too, which is why I'm thinking it could be him.

Do you have any samples of his own handwriting?
