    Smile James Elliott,Wife Mary Jane

    My Great Grandfather JAMES ELLIOTT, I believe arrived in
    Melbourne in 1864 as their first child Edward was born in 1864,
    they arrived from Devenish N. Ireland. Their second child
    William John Elliott was born in 1865, he was my grandfather
    and was believed to have imported the first car into Sydney
    in 1899/1900, looking for any information on this family .

    Do you have William's birth certificate? as it should say when and where his parents married, their ages, birthplaces and if there were other children born before Edward in 1864.

    This will help narrow down when they arrived.

    Smile james elliott

    I don,t have birth certificate, but I know they married in
    Devenish N.Ireland in 1863 so I figure they must have
    sailed in 63 or 64 but will try shipping records for arrival
    dates . Many Thanks.
