Hi,
John and Sarah Watts (nee Tew) of Adstock, emigrated with their children Betsy, Anne, Thomas, Robert and Maria to Australia 1848. They sailed from England on the 'Adelaide' and entered Port Phillip, Melbourne on 22 June 1848.
Four years later when Anne was only 15 she married Henry Head aged 30. He was on that boat too. He was an ancestor of my husband. Henry came from Dowsby, Lincolnshire.
I have information about their children from Australia and Anne's further marriage to Samuel Southby after Henrys death
Cheers
Marianne Head
