    Hi Janet
    Thanks for that, I will check some birth dates to see if these tie in. From the records for these Myers do they show parents, where born?
    Once again thanks for your help Janet.

    Regards
    Tim

    No, nothing as regards parents or place of birth. Ancestry do hold Immigration records but I haven't managed to find a Frederick MYERS, or variants, with a father Herman. There is one with a father Heinrich though.

    Hi Janet

    What details does it show? I need to renew my subscription to Ancestry and my local genealogy society here in Adelaide.

    Regards

    Not many details, Tim. It is a Port of London Certificate of Arrival dated 21 November 1843 in the names of Heinrich Christian & Frederick Wilhelm MEYERS, arrived from Hamburg ...... Neptune?, Profession: Merchant, native of Germany, Remarks: left 2 years, has a Passport each.

    Some of the writing is very faint but I think I have the majority of it correct.

    There is a record on Ancestry's Criminal Registers for a Frederick MYERS born c1785: MYERS, Frederick, aged 30, Larceny, convicted at The Old Bailey on 11 December 1815 sentenced to 1 years Imprisonment and Whipped. Then another record in the name of Frederick MEYERS, aged 33, Larceny, convicted at the Old Bailey May Session 1818 and sentenced to 7 years Transportation. Can't find a Transportation record for him at the moment, but will keep looking.
