Catherine arrived in NSW in 1839 on the Planter. Her birth year is given as 1819.

Thanks Libby.

James Cheater died Feb 1837 and was buried at St Peter and St Paul, Bath aged 49 (b 1787/8)

James Cheater (Chester) m Sarah Oram 1813 at Walcot, Somerset.

Witnesses Jacob Amer and Henry Stillman.

I've seen that name, Henry Stillman somewhere in the last 24 hours!

Still, clearly it's much easier to find the people who are close to Frederick, but not Fred (John?) himself!

Oooh, this looks like one of mine (or at lease, one of the family I'm wondering about!):

CHETER, LOUISA CLARKE
GRO Reference: 1839 D Quarter in BATH Volume 11 Page 33

Louisa was buried in Feb 1842, so should be on the 1841 census. Address from burial record is Pulteney Road.

I can't get this entry to come up on Bath BMD, nor have I found any others 1837-1851 (on Bath BMD or the GRO), but then I said I couldn't find any before, so what do I know! lol

This is the family:

Caroline Buildings, Lyncombe and Widcombe, Somerset

Fredrick Cheetre (transcribed as Cheetne), 25, french polisher, Yes
Elizabeth ditto, 20, Yes
Louisa ditto, 2, Yes

So, Elizabeth could still be mine. Really need more!

There's also a Joseph Chead, mmn Clark b 1837, d 1840 all in Bath district. No address on the burial and no baptism.

I've not yet researched this name combination for a different couple.

You can search births on Bath BMD by MMN so I have found her - listed as Chester.

Oh, thanks Kate.

I was thinking, if Elizabeth Clark/Cheater is mine, her aunt (mother's sister) was called Louisa Cook. This Louisa married twice and had three children by her first marriage (born 1828-1832) but they all died v young. In 1841 Louisa is with her first husband, Isaac Perry, and also in their household is my gg-grandfather, George Clark, aged 17 (listed down to 15). I've never been able to estabish what became of William and Charlotte Clark, parents of George and Elizabeth (all promising people eliminated), but did wonder if George had been brought up by Louisa and Isaac Perry. Now George's potential sister has called her daughter Louisa, that is promising, especially if Louisa had a hand in her upbringing too.

If only I could work out what happened to Frederick and Elizabeth!

I might have to try harder with William and Charlotte Clark as I think there's more records available than when I last looked.

In case anyone else wants to look whilst I'm at Tesco Express, they are:

Charlotte Eliza Cook bap St Swithins, Walcot, Bath Somerset 23-Jul-1797

William Clark unknown birth/bap

Charlotte only has the middle name on her baptism.

They married 26-Mar-1816 at St Swithin's Walcot, Bath. I got that from an offline index where I wrote away for it, but I expect the marriage will be online somwhere now.

1816-1824 they lived at Beaufort Square, Bath, Somerset (baps of children). William was sometimes a chairman and sometimes a labourer. The only other child who may have lived to adulthood, other than George and (maybe) Elizabeth is Jane Clark, bap 1819 at St Swithin's, Walcot. I know nothing further about Jane after her baptism.

This is William and Charlotte's marriage record:

https://www.ancestry.co.uk/imageview...ce&pId=2916897

The marriage before it (bottom of the previous page), but not on the same day although the banns were called on the same days, is John Clark and Anne Prince. Henry Stillman is a witness on a lot of the marriages, including both Clark marriages.
