        Hi Pat - yes, I was wondering if you had the burials..and then if 'older' Gracey's would be at the same cemetery..

          John R Gracey is buried at Lithgow General Cemetery - their records are online (http://www.australiancemeteries.com/...m#anchor128858)
          Sarah does not appear in that list although registered in the Lithgow district, but you could email Lithgow District FH Society,

          who have records of all the other local cemeteries and see if they know - they might also have some record of John Gracey senior. I cannot see his death registration, which is a pain, because his death cert will show where and when he was born. You should get John and Sarah's marriage cert - it might say who his parents are, or his age, or some other clue.

          I was going to look in the newspapers for the Graceys, but the website is doing a major upgrade and is not available today.

            I found Sarah Carver born 1848 in Sydney, but nothing for John Gracey, also could not see him in the Assisted Migrants listing.
            This is a possible arrival for him as a full paying passenger - http://mariners.records.nsw.gov.au/1863/06/033emp.htm
            But there will not be anything more than maybe notice of arrival in the paper. Assisted migrants had more information recorded about them, like place of birth and age.

            The 1861 census shows a couple of John Graceys born in Scotland and one in Ireland.

                Hi hotmail - that's fantastic news. You must be quite excited. Let us know how you get on. In the meantime, I'll have a look at the site -
                I think this might be it http://www.convictconnections.org.au/ or http://www.gsq.org.au/society/convict.html
