The more I find, the more I need to find!

Can anyone help me with children of:

John Murray and Margaret Mansfield.

I have Mary born in 1848, so looking for other births from 1841 onwards (when John arrived in Victoria from Ireland)

Many thanks.

Kerri...

thanks very much!

Why are there 2 records for Richard? Are we saying there were 2 infants born (presuming one died) or that it is 2 entries for the same person?

I don't think I need any more on them at the moment....

I do have some more Clarks to pursue, if you are staying up?!
