Thank you for all your replies,
I have very little information on George Blake.
He arrived in Hobart Tasmania Australia in 1873 on the Caranjah . He worked on the railway line there in Oatlands, Tasmania for the Tasmanian Main Line Railway Company (Limited). Through the Railway company he was issued a land order that stated he was 23yrs old formerly from 21 Chatham Gardens, Middlesex, England. Unfortunately i don't have any information on his life in England before arriving in Australia . On his death certificate it states parents unknown. It is possible he is an orphan. But i know it was a long shot but i was hoping maybe with that address i was able to see if he was residing there with his parents as a young child. Maybe he was only living there before he left England.
A big correction it was 21 Chatham Gardens, not 24 as i initally stated.
Apologies if i posted in the incorrect thread, i just got a little excited when i saw the older post with same Chatham Gardens. I will look at the other threads as i think maybe i should look at the 1871 census and work back from there.
Thank you once again to you all.
