Individual Note:
     an Officer in the Crimean War in the 77th Reg. of Foot Mar. 19, 1855 He was still in the service in April of 1856 - arrived in Australia 1858.
I think WJW was saying he was a Lieutenant in the Army and his Dad was a Merchant. His famil y paid 450 Pounds for his commission in 1855 and I think in todays terms that would be well over 30,000 pounds. We knew he was in the Army but could not find him as we were looking in the 44th Reg. It turns out he was in the 77th of the Foot Reg. after several years of work . I work with John Nelson Wanklyn of Oxford, England on the Wanklyn family history and we have spent a lot of time trying to figure out how and why WJW went to Australia.
