Yes I got this as well - how accurate was Dr J A H? Did he err ever? THe
Vorster Web pages have John WILKINSON married off to other Hester VORSTER
too - or put it another way, Hester WILKINSON's DN gives her different
parents! Why can't my family be simply?

One of the WILKINSON daughters married Henry Jacob KENNETT who according to
his own hand in his bible arrived on the immagrant ship Adelaide in 1862 -
Dear Esme Bull lists the Adelaide arriving in 1862 - same date as Henry
gives in his bible and everything but no Henry Jacob KENNETT in the
passenger list. Esme Bull does mention that the Captain and Surgeon went
ashore and immigrant left the boat without be reconciled with the passenger
list - why was my ancestor so damn keen!!!

Derek Pratt
