(I looked for all of them at the NARA and found they were not registered as passengers in NY.) In 1826, on the ship "Virginia," these were the passengers sent to somewhere in the USA. FULLER, George and Jemima. Four children and a baby. HARRIS, James (26) and Mary. One child, one baby. Mary was born a LONGLEY. HARRIS, William (22). Brother of James. WENBAN, Charles (29) and his wife. MAINARD, John (19) WYBOURNE, George (15) In 1827 on the ship "Hercules" were these passengers sent to somewhere in the USA. COLEMAN, T. Longley (28) and Harriet (21) Thomas, 2 and 1/2. Elizabeth (9 months) Lavender, John and Elizabeth. John (11) Nancy (9) Thomas (3) Harriet (2) {He was an illegitimate son of Thomas Longley and Martha Coleman. {Harriet was born a MAINARD) MAINARD, William (48) and Hannah (45).

Martha (25), John Orlando (22), William (19), Mary Anne (17), Sarah Serena (10) Gerard Noel (8), Robert (5). George, who sailed in 1826 was the eldest of 10 children and was brother to John. In 1828, families applied to go to Australia, another to New South Wales, another to Sydney. Same for Canada. No names were given in any case. Extracted from "Sandhurst Chronicles" published by a committee in Sandhurt, Kent, England. No publication date, but 1980 appears to be the latest date in the body of the book. It may be possible to trace them in the 1830 or 1840 censuses, perhaps in Filby's books. I've not tried. Shirley Maynard Hampton, VA
