Tracey Report 25 Jul 2007 03:47

Hi, my name is Tracey Barker - I'm trying to find any information that i can on a Benjamin Barker born c1803 in Norfolk. He was transported to Australia in 1827 on the ship 'Midas'. I have plenty of information on him since his arrival in Australia but i'm struggling to trace anything prior to this. I would greatly appreciate information anyone may have to help me find who his parents and any siblings may have been. I believe he had a brother that also came out to Australia around the same time as a free man but i havent had any luck tracing them back...please help!
