thanks everyone, thats abit more than what I could find with some previous help.
The surname is anderson.
For the trip to Aust I am attempting to track, would it list all 3 john, Marion and Christina? I know it seems a silly question, but can several lists for a John in the right time frame but nothing for the other 2. Both the Utopia and Hibernia seem to fit the timeframes but there is no ship listing to look at.
Also how do I track births prior to 1855, have tried family search but I am unaware of any other tools

Can't see them as a family on 1851 Scotland census

1841 has no results for John Haddow/Renfrewshire

Trying to find out about this couple and their family in Scotland. John Haddow and Marion McLachlan were both born around 1822 in Greenock Scotland. They married in 21/3/1847 in Greenock, Renfrewshire . their 1st child Christina weir was born in 1850 in Scotland. They had a son Robert b 1855 in Williamstown, Aust, then another 2 Marion and James. I can't seem to track down their trip to Australia somewhere b/ween 1850 - 1855. Also can anyone tell me if I able to access any info from their time in Scotland, and how?
Many thanks Maryann.
