Hi Cousin John,

I was trying to discover this Joseph Josiah some time back. Because I could
not find any info I accepted that his father was the one I was tracing and
all my records acknowledge this. I was able to trace Charles and have a full
account of his decendants, but no mention of Joseph Josiah. It is like he
never made it to Australia.

I hope someone else may be able to shed some light.

Merry Christmas.

John Seamons (Heathmont)
