Eliza Jane arrived in Adelaide with her first husband Frederic Essenhigh in 1848. (They married Dartford, Kent and had one child Caroline Amelia who died very young, before emigrating to Asutralia, where Frederic had a brother. They had 4 children and I think they all died young but have been unable to confirm yet. Frederic was a baker (as was her father Stephen and he (Frederic)died of consumption in Adelaide in 1854 - she married William in 1855 in Adelaide- (have been unable to find details of marriage but am currently following up a lead) -moving soon after to Melbourne where their first child Harry was born in 1856.
