Searching Janet MILLAR the second daughter of Mr John MILLAR of MUSSELBURGH Scotland
Janet died August 5 , 1889 in St Leonards Sydney New South Wales Australia. Searching for Birth date and location ( details possibly early 1800's.) Janet immigrated to Australia and lived in Tasmania and Port Phillip ( now Melbourne Victoria Australia ). Married John Muston in Sydney August 31, 1848. Had 7 children.
- What is Janet's Date & Place of Birth plus other other siblings?
- What Vessel brought her to Australia and when ?
- Janet was not a convict. How did she afford to travel to Australia Did she have a benefactor or did she enrol in the Bounty schemes?
- Any other information of Janet would be appreciated. She is my Great,Great, Grandmother and I hope you can help me find these facts.Many thanks

Thanks Brett,
Unfortunately I can't access any of the documents you have found.
Is it possible to send them in a different format ?
PS. Their marriage certificate had a error on it Huston not Muston. The papers confirmed the date..
Looking forward to what you have found.
Cheers

It is NOT, the FORMAT, of the Images, that is the Problem/Issue ...
The Problem/Issue, is "Image Moderation", in 'FamilySearch'.
I think, that "Image Moderation", in 'FamilySearch', may be in Overdrive/Overworked due to "RootsTech 2022"
Give it some 'Time'; and, a will also try. to 'rejig' things, as well.
