This calendar [ D/DCf/F292 ]or summary of old documents has several
errors which hare obvious if you read the old documents
1) Henry Harridance's housekeeper was FANNY Richmond not her niece
Sarah. Richmond
2) Mary Eliza means Eliza Sarah Richmond returned to England with Henry
James and (not mentioned her 6 week old son William-
baby's were not recorded on passenger ship lists as the law did not require
that food be allocated to them)
3) Henry James Richmond and his mother and stepfather (and bro. William)
did not go back to England to Hexham but the Hexham in Victoria
- near Mortlake
I have copies of all the documents from this "bundle" from the Records Office of Essex excepty the UK government regulations for transporting passengers which were standard and well known to genealogists.
