Hi I am trying to find some information on the Campbell family in the Gloucester area.

Recently we have received copies of Herbert Campbell's marriage and death certificates from NSW Births, Deaths & Marriages in Australia.

Here is the information on them:

Father's name is either Herbert or Henry Campbell and he was a hotelkeeper.
Mother's name is Sarah Harvey
Was born about 1854 and was from City of Gloucester, England.
Immigrated to Australia in around 1882 firstly to South Australia for about 1 year then moved to New South Wales.

Herbert Campbell married Jane Murphy who is my 2nd great grand Aunt.

I would love any information on Herbert - parents, siblings or descendants

Many thanks

The closest birth in southern England is :-

Date of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar 1854
Registration district: Droitwich
