Hello!
I'm so sorry I forgot to name that she came to Oz in 1849 at about 24 yoa.
The Gale's in London är a jungle.
Maybe they're connected. Have you followed the Gale trail backwards? Rosina's father was a mariner and she was an orphan in 1846. Charles Dickens took her in to his "Urania House" It was he who put her and other girls on the ships to Oz.

Rosina died in Victoria in 1869 aged 43 years.
Born circa 1826 in London.
The death records did not name Rosina's parents.

No marriage recorded for George and Rosina in Victoria.

Thank you for that. I already have that info. George said on her death cert that they were marr in London, which I suspect isn't true.
I have photo of their grave if anyone would like to have it.
