Ships Clara
3 September 1853
Notes - Rica Erickson's 'Bride Ships' has a page on Heffer Dhu. Heffer Dhu, his wife and 6 children, were placed in the Toodyay hiring depot and were the most difficult to place because of Heffer's poor health. They eventually needed poor relief. They had come from an English poorhouse. This was actually contrary to the rules for free emigrants so someone must have fudged the books in UK.
Hi Darryl I assume your info re Heffer Dew/Dhu is from the Bicentennial Index of W.Aust. Heffer was never married to Elizabeth Chain & for some reasons they have Alfred Dew married to her but I have found no evidence of this. Also no Bridget Dew,on checking the original source the girl above was named Bridget & instead of having Hannah's name there was a ~ mark & Rica Erickson assumed it meant the Dew girl was also named Bridget. If you would like a gedcom of the DEW family & the ancestors I will send you one by attachment
Also how do the MITTING family come into your line All the Best
Barbara Mitting
Heffer Dhu was born at Harston in Cambridshire 25/7/1819
Parents Mary Heiffer & Robert Dew.It seems that he was
one of eight children.Mary was one of seven children, her
parents were Richard & Jane Heffer.
