Hi David,
When I first started to look for Edwin & John Wade for Josie I couldn't find Edwin in any passenger lists to Australia or NZ between 1851 and 1861 - and still can't. There was an Edwin Wade living in NZ, but much later.
Those Ward ones arriving in 1847 were wrong, because they both appear in the IoM 1851 census.
Any further ideas?
Thanks,
Sue
