Australian History

[Ward69]

We where convicts. Sent to Australia and the first to get married, feb 1788 Married at lane cove Sydney

 

[Manpa]

Marriage of William Parr(fraud) to Mary Mcculloch, First fleet convicts in Feb 1788, one of five couples to be married.

If its correct, pass it to Ward 69, his clues helped me.

That's the answer I was looking for ManPa, hope the clues aren't too cryptic now O

1/ 1st early settlers
2/ "Jump the stick" informal marriage ceremony, both here and amongst slaves in the USA
4/ 1st officially recorded, official marriage in Australia

Have a go Ward69
