James Tuson was born in 1830 at Wootton, near Liverpool. He migrated to Australia in 1852 on the "Hiberian".
From information I received from 'Nannas' (thank you very much) to a posting on the Australia thread I discovered that he travelled with his wife Elizabeth and a daughterto the UK on holiday in 1887/8.
I have found them returning to Australia on the Lusitania in January 1888 (Public Record Office of Victoria - Unassisted Passenger Index)
Could someone have a look on the A******* inwards passenger list to see when they arrived in the UK and on which vessel? Thanks

Hi Nannas
I never thought of looking at that index (silly me!)
You've really aroused my curiosity with your posting. Bluff is at the bottom of the South Island. So maybe they did a bit of touring in New Zealand before embarking on the journey to England by way of the Pacific Ocean. I will search the passenger lists for arrivals in Bluff, and the Papers Past web site to see if they appear -- thanks for your help, really appreciated.
The NZSG has a CD "Victoria Outwards to New Zealand" - perhaps I should invest in it!!

1882 TUSON, Esq.,
1886 H Tuson.
1896-99 C H TUSON, cordial manufacturer.

Anyone sound familiar??

Hi
I've got all these in my tree EXCEPT for H Tuson 1886 - I found him on an inward passenger list to westland but haven't been able to link him yet to any particular line.
A B Tuson arrived in 1851, prior to that he tried Australia but was declared bankrupt in Maitland. Cornelius is one of his children. A B is also a member of the Tuson family who were prominent in Queensland in the 19th century
kind regards
David

Hi David,
Ancestry does not record any arrivals in 1887 for the Arawa. Those records must be missing.
