Elizabeth,

I came across your page below. After leaving New Zealand and before coming to Victoria, John and Anna Harris went to Tasmania, where they had a son and a daughter. They already had a daughter (from whom I’m descended) born in Worcestershire.

Have you any more information about their forebears?
