Joseph Brayshaw arrived in Victoria aboard the “Shooting Star” in 1858 with his brother David Brayshaw , who accompanied his wife,Ellen Reynolds, and his two children.
The “Shooting Star” was a vessell of some 1460 tons, owned by James Baines and Co, and was a part of the “Black Ball” line of British and Australian CLipper packets.
The vessell had left Liverpool on the 6th of Nov 1857, under the Captaincy of Master William Alcock. There were 285 passengers aboard her, and she was licensed to carry 304. The journey took 140 days to complete, with the vessell arriving Port Phillip on the 5th Feb 1858. 신용카드현금화
Oral family history suggests that Joseph was brought out from England to open up the Ballarat “New” Cemetery..perhaps he was a stone mason or similar.He did work as a gardner in his later life.
