I can't open the images for some reason to see who else is there. I'll have a look on ancestry


DISREGARD .............. see below!

drat ......... Ancestry's passenger lists don't start until 1890!

It looks like Elizabeth and son George emigrated about 3 months before William.

I wonder is any more of William's siblings also moved down under??

Hello Sylvia, yes Elizabeth also had son George born 1841 (baptised 15 August 1841). I have him aged 9 on the 1851 census at Easington, Co Durham but can't find him after that. I was a bit confused by the death notice saying Mrs George Race. Looking at it properly I should have noticed the different address. Will try and find George.

Posted the above before I had seen page 2.

Hello Sylvia, I have his other brother James on a different thread altogether back in August. I was looking for the death of his wife Hannah and you actually found a bigamous marriage for both of them. Quite an interesting family!!

Yes, that "mother of Mrs George Race" confused me as well. It was Mrs on the image, but I wonder if it was just the printer making a mistake??

There ARE 2 George Races ....... one baptised 15 Aug 1841, Easington, Durham, parents George and Elizabeth; and one baptised 15 May 1840, Monk Hesleton, Durham, parents George and Mary.


I think the George on these 1871, 1881 and 1891 censuses is the OTHER one ........ but I'll leave them up as a warning for other helpers!!

Disregard the passenger records for George and Elizabeth ................ they are the other George.

This is their son Foster on the same ship ...........

I've seen records for George and Elizabeth with ship's name shown as both Samuel Slimsoll and as S Plimsoll.

Perhaps you can find the records on Family Search??

I have James at home with his parents on the 1861 census at New Row, Haswell, Co Durham. George baptism is the 15 August 1841.

Thanks Sylvia, you have been a great help.
