Charles Boyce and Rose Dunn - in Australia
 

My aunt has a 30cM connection with a descendant of this couple (and eight other matches with them, from two separate family groups.

From what I can gather, Charles married Rose in Australia in 1853.

This is possibly Charles with his parents in Wickham, Hants in 1841:

Thomas Boyce Male 56 1785 Hampshire, a cooper
Jane Boyce Female 45 1796 Hampshire,
Caroline Boyce Female 15 1826 Hampshire
Mary Boyce Female 14 1827 Hampshire,
Harriett Boyce Female 12 1829 Hampshire,
Thomas Boyce Male 10 1831 Hampshire,
Charles Boyce Male 8 1833 Hampshire,
George Boyce Male 5 1836 Hampshire,

If it is (Ancestry have transcribed it as Boyd) it looks as if the whole family may have emigrated. Can anyone find them?

Here is a little bit that may or may not be helpful....

Charles BOYCE married Rose DUNN New South Wales 2 November 1853

Rose BOYCE daughter of Charles DUNN died 23 Feb 1907 Queensland

There are a few Charles BOYCE deaths in Queensland, but none give the parents names.

They had 4 children in Queensland:

1863 C507 Harriet Boyce Charles Boyce Rose Dunn
1863 C549 Louisa Boyce Charles Boyce Rose Dunn

The C before the Registration number means "country" but as far as I can tell it means it was not in Brisbane OR the place was not listed.

To search yourself try this: QLD BDM

Thank you both.
This appears to be the rest of the family in Wickham in 1851:
