Notes

I couldn't find what happened to Sarah and David until I found this book. I kept getting the David James Anderson who married Ann Brown in the same area and it was very confusing. I obtained Frederick William Anderson's death certificate which lead me to Sarah & David. As I said, I got the infromation out of the book on Angels of Geraldton. I have lent the book out at the moment, so cannot refer to it. Hope this helps. Any other information you require, I'd be happy to send if I have it.
On the marriage certificate it has David James Anderson as the father. he was a shoemaker. I have seen his name written as David
(James) Anderson, so feel his name is David, but the confusion comes in with the other David Anderson.

Description: the reference to him being known as David or Daniel is probably wrong, especially if James turns out to be the convict James.

The James Anderson who arrived on the "Victory" in 1854 with his father William and Mother Eliza was only 12 years old. This fellow can't be the same James Anderson the shoemaker from Toodyay who died in 1867 aged 38. The dates are all wrong.

I'm positive that this is the wrong James Anderson and we need to find another. I've been researching James Anderson the convict #507 who was 18 years old when sentenced to Transportation at the Old Bailey in October 1848. The Old Bailey court records are searchable online. He was convicted for a housebreak and enter. He was sent to Fremantle on the "Pyrenees" in 1851, then sent to North Fremantle Hiring Depot. There was a convict depot established at Toodyay and I suspect he was sent there but cannot locate the record of it, it is a small piece in my puzzle that I would like to find. He was pardoned in April 1854.

On arrival to the colony his occupation was noted by the Comptroller of Convicts as "portmanteau maker and saddler". Portmanteau = bag or suitcase. We can see that this occupation is related to his trade as a boot and shoe maker.

There also appears to be a record that he is the half brother of Charles Adams who established the heritage homestead of "Mangowine" in the Toodyay district; Adams was the informant on Anderson's death certificate. See my comments under "Sarah Kennedy" where Adams assumed the running of Anderson's bootmaking business on the death of Anderson.
