I am researching the Brazier family from Pavenham in Bedfordshire, England.
John Howe Brazier's mother was Elizabeth West who was married several times and appears to have a chequered past, having been sentenced to 1 whole year in prison for Bastardry from 12 November 1808 to 11 November 1809.
Elizabeth Brazier's parents were William West and Sarah Swannell.
John Howe Brazier married Jessie Eliza Burton in 1830. John and Eliza and seven of their children arrived in Sydney NSW Australia on board the "Lloyds" in 1855.
Their eldest daughter Anne was 19 at the time of their immigration and stayed in England with her husband.
It is unclear where the family went after arrival in Australia, however at some stage prior to 1860 they came to Armidale, where they owned a farm at Kellys Plains,via Armidale NSW Australia called "Berry Farm".
Any information would be appreciated. I am also willing to share the information that I have.
