Member Since: January 2005 Posts: 24 Send Message	Thank you for your information. I have read the article on his death through the trove site. How can I find how David travelled to Australia and when? I have searched the ancestry.com site passenger lists and family search site but not sure where else to look. I believe that David Murray Streader was born in Skirbeck, Boston area UK. Would that information be recorded in the Church records? regards Megan

Member Since: January 2005 Posts: 24 Send Message	Hi. I am looking for any information on David Murray Streader who I believe was born in Lincolnshire in 1828 and emigrated to Australia - Bendigo Victoria, where he died in 1883 in a mining accident. He was married to Mary Martin but I don't know where, may be in 1855. I can not find any passenger lists with his name
