Hi, I am pretty sure William was born to Henry and Elizabeth. I know he had two wives the first Sarah Hatcher and the second Mary Richardson. Now I think he married Susanna before following his sons and emigrating to Sydney, NSW. He lived at Bligh St, Newtown (O'Connell Town) his son William a pastrycook lived in Bligh St. I think William went searching for Gold and died at Louisa Creek, NSW in 1853 when he was 63 years old. His wife Susanna went on to marry Edward Payne in 1857 before passing in 1868 aged 74 years.

Can anyone find a marriage record for William and Susanna in or around Rolvenden, Kent
