hi there,
hoping someone will be able to help, this adam storey b. 1822 married an ann renner. went to australia in approx 1850 with a squire william watson, as his valet, not sure why - or how long they were there, maybe they got lucky and struck gold! they were apparently there for several months, adam storey was a fisherman, and apparently squire william watson wanted someone who knew the sea. but i know nothing else about this, i am not sure when australia had the goldrush i vaguely recall reading about it in my schooldays, very many years ago.
