    Default MOORE James Bennett b1788 Portsmouth

    Am seeking information on sons of James Bennett MOORE and Sarah GARDINER. Most of family Christened in St Thomas Church Portsmouth.



    Have Australian Family Trees for my GGGrandfather James Alexander MOORE born abt 1820 , his brother James Bennett b August 1819, and sister Sarah who married Thomas Smith LYNE.



    Seeking information on William George MOORE b21 Sept 1823

    John MOORE b 8 August 1827

    Samuel Webber MOORE b 1830



    Family story as one or two brothers also coming to Australia, but until now I have not been able to find out who, when and where.



    Would also dearly like to find more information on the family in England. It is believed that they had a ships chandlery shop in Portsmouth.



    Would be pleased to share Australian family information with other family members.

    Thank you Slizzy,



    The age of Samuel in the 1851 Cencus does not fit, but there may be family connection somewhere.



    The 1841 reference is amazing in that the age of the Samuel is about right as I have confirmed his Christening in St Thomas Portsmouth on the 29th of September. But the clincher is Matilda Reed. She is the daughter of James Reed and she married James Bennett Moore, Samuels brother in St Marys Portsea on 30th Oct 1841. They then came to South Australia, arriving on Dec 23rd 1849 on the Constant.



    The 1841 reference, does it have a head of house or other family members as well?



    We seemed to have identified him, now we need to find out what he got up to



    Thanks for your help



    Alan

    Hi Alan,



    Sorry, the English 1841 census doesn't name the head's of household.



    There were no other people listed in that house on the census.
