Find Ancestors

Hi,
I'm trying to trace Hindhaugh connections in Australia. I have relatives who were transported in 1844 and one in 1818 but can find no marriage etc whilst there.
I known there are Hindhaughs in Australia but can not find out when they sailed or when they arrived, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in anticipation
Ken

Also from the same index:

The first vessel to sail from Melbourne under the auspices of the Camden Harbour Association was the Stag on 16th November, 1864. She reached her destination on 16th December with sheep, cattle, and horses, and such sturdy young settlers as Messrs. E. T. Hooley, A. J. McRae, J. Hindhaugh, T. C. Murray, and Ellwood. A more inappropriate season than December, 1864, could probably not have been chosen. It was a time of drought; the heat was intense, sometimes registering before sunset 125 degrees in the shade; and the tall waving pasture which explorers depicted had disappeared. The land contiguous to Camden Harbour was burnt and parched, and destitute of grass and water. Grave mistakes had been made; the shareholders were misled and the association had not taken the trouble to examine this country before embarking the stock, nor were they wise in choosing the time of year to found their settlement. The young men, when they appreciated their unenviable situation, set about making the best of it. Messrs. Hooley, McRae, Hindhaugh, and Ellwood struck for the Glenelg in hopes of finding fresh water to relieve the famishing stock. They discovered to their surprise that the Glenelg was a tidal river. On the return journey Mr. Ellwood became fatigued under the extreme heat and excessive exercise, and it was with difficulty that his companions encouraged him to proceed. All were thirsty, and more or less suffering. In the gloaming a bronze-winged pigeon was seen to rise a little distance away, and going thither a beautiful pool of fresh water was found. By morning they reached the Harbour in safety, and learnt that Mr. Murray had hit upon a splendid spring half a mile from the shore.

I wonder if this is Ann Smith or someone new, or a totally different James.

??? - from NLA Trove

The Cumberland Argus and Fruitgrowers Advocate (Parramatta NSW), Saturday 4 November 1899
The marriage of Mr. Charles William Hindhaugh, of Perth, W.A., son of the late George Hindhaugh, of North Shields, Northumberland, England, with Miss Edwyna Mary Colley, second daughter of the late Mr. Henry Colley, of Parramatta, was celebrated at the Church of the Holy Ghost, Balham, London, England, on the 31st August, the Rev. Father Warwick officiating. The bride, who is very pretty, looked exceedingly well and stately in a lovely gown of rich white silk, with a large white drawn silk picture hat with ostrich plumes, and carried a shower bouquet, in which was noticed a quantity of orange blossom, a spray of which was also worn on the corsage...[more]

Sadly, Edwyna died in London on 1/10/1900. Possible death for Charles in Parramatta district in 1955 aged 91 (so born c1864).

EDIT: Not an uncommon name from those parts so may be unconnected to your mob.

Have you tried searching for them on the Australian newspaper site?
