Aided Immigration 1857-1867 look up please

[Buddy]

Please could you look up Patrick Torpey and Denis Goodyear as I am not having much luck finding them elsewhere.
Many thanks

[Lesley Robertson]

Buddy, have you consulted the website of the Genealogical Society of South Africa? www.eggsa.org/ I know that they have a Passenger List transcribing project.

From Aided Immigration 1857-1867 by Esme Bull

Patrick Torpey (23) farm labourer, wife Julia (24) and children Patrick (5). Mary (3) and Catherine (inf), from Scariff, County Clare, Ireland, sailed on the Tudor, dep Southampton 3/12/1859 arr Port Elizabeth 22/2/1860. Family travelling to Patrick Molony, labourer, Port Elizabeth.

Can't see a Dennis Goodyear listed

[Buddy]

Thanks so much Sue, looks like you have found the right family - it was a very young Catherine I was looking for
Dennis Goodyear arrived in SA at some point, the passenger lists don't always give an initial, which is bothersome.
Thanks again
