I am seeking information regarding the date of death of John Thomas Denny (b1826 in Marylebone, Middlesex, Engalnd. Married Annie Elizabeth Kirby 1851 Westminster London. John and his wife and 1 child emigrated to Australia on the ship named the Doggerbank"- departed London 2.10.1852 - arrived Melbourne Australia 15.03.1853.
Annies death certificate indicates that they lived in New South Wales Australia for 2 years and 37 years in Victoria. Inormation found indicates John was a mariner and that he was a crewman in the "Wongo Wonga", a vessel which traveled in Australian Coastal waters 1888888854-1880. No death certificate can be found John despite extensive researh. I has been suggested that he deserted Annie circa 1862 Can anyone assist with information
