Dear Vickie, Would your Eliza have appeared on the 1841 Census for England aged 24yrs?
If so, you could logon to Rootschat and get someone to do a Census Lookup Request for you if you don't have access to ancestry.com.
When did this family you are researching emigrate to Australia?
Alison.
Hi Alison
Yes that would be most likely be her.
They emigrated in 1855, my great grandfather was born on the ship John Banks on the way here, so he is named William John Banks Lake.
