Hi,
I am looking for info on my great great great grandparents.
John SELBY and Jane DARBY.
John SELBY was born in abt 1780 in Wales UK. He married Jane DARBY.
I am not sure of her birth etc, or their marraige date. John Died in Glebe, NSW, Australia on the 24 Aug 1890. I am not sure if he was a convict or free settler, or wheather he came out before his son Meshack or not.

I have one of John and Jane's children so far.
His name was Meshack SELBY born on the 9 Jan 1822 in Oakwoodhill, Forest of Dean. He married Martha JAMES in May 1848 at the church of ST Paul in Park End, Forest Of Dean. His occupation was a stone Mason.

He migrated to Australia with his wife and 2 eldest children Martha and Paul arriving in Australia on the 15 Aug 1855 on board the ship "Startled Fawn"
He died on the 7 Aug 1880 in Stanmore, NSW, Australia.
Any help on John SELBY or Jane DARBY would be greatly appriciated.

Regards Vicki
