Hi,
I am trying to find out more about John Robert Banbury, b1814 possibly in London. He married Margaret Abbot Pettengel whose father was Joseph and mother was Marion Jones. I don't know when or where they married, but they came to Australia before 1855 (a child born in NSW then)
Any help would be great.
Thanks

Hi Dee, yes, Christopher Humphrey was his father, thanks.

Hi Trudianne, Robert T was my great grandfather, but I didn't have much on his father John. Looks like it was he who died in 1869...it fits his DoB
Thanks

Thanks Lindsey,
Are they Australian records? Were John and Margaret married in Aust?

Nichola,

Yes, they were married in N.S.W. Take note that he was named as Robert on marriage & birth records, not John
