Fitzpatricks Arrive from Ireland

This is a graphic of the good ship Charlotte Gladstone which carried from Ireland to Australia (Victoria, actually) four children of George and Norah Fitzpatrick.

The children were Patrick (26), Kate (20), Timothy (18) and Honora (14). They arrived in 1869.

In 1875 Timothy married Catherine Brown and in 1884 they had a son, Ernest Alfred, my grandfather.
