Greetings to all from a new chum

My great grandparents Charles Canty BYRON and Catherine MILLAR married
in Melbourne in 1860. They had four daughters and I am trying to trace
birthdates and places for three of them. The search period is 1860-1868,
as Catherine remarried in New Zealand in 1869. I do not know when they
crossed the Tasman. BDMs in Victoria and NZ have been checked with no
success. I guess church registers will be the only source left. Can
anyone help, please?

Names as follows -

Cornelia Canty BYRON - b29/10/1860, ch "Parish of Sandhurst" - abode
given as Sailors Gully.
Clara Canty BYRON - birthplace on marriage cert given as Bendigo.
Catherine Canty BYRON - could Queenstown be a possibility?
Cora Canty BYRON - no details known.

The above is all I know at present.

Regards

Ailsa Petrie
