    Danny, do you have James' birth details? I guess you probably do as you state 1833. If his parents were James & Lucy, I may have a bit more info.

    Danny, I posted the information that I found on the Porstmouth thread....these seem to cross over. Unfortunately, I picked the query up on this NZ thread rather than the other one.

    Hope it's a little help...I will try and look around to see if I can discover anything else.

    Hello lyn and welcome to the forum.

    Though Danny is still a member of the forum, he has not been active for some time.

    Hopefully, your post may direct him back, you could always try clicking on his name and sending him a private message, he may then respond quicker.

    Good Luck
