If anyone is also doing research on any of these families, I would love to share info. Best regards, Amy Vander Kelen

Amy - once I have caught up with things and have the time I will work carefully through this information and check details with what records I have.

Meantime could you give me an idea of where in Australia Samuel Shugg was and I might be able to get more information for you to add to your records.

South Australia and Victoria will be easy as I have the relevant records available.

Hi Amyjopet

Not sure from your post what lines of this family you are interested in, but as a break from some other stuff I was working on thought I would have a quick play to see what I could find, in particular on the Australian branches.

It seems that quite a few lines of this family ended up in Australia, and will post my findings in a series of posts to try to minimise confusion.

Either this marriage is incorrectly attributed or John James Shugg apparently was known as James Shugg.

There are also numerous other Shuggs in Victoria in the mid to late 1800s that look like they might originate in Cornwall. However at a quick look, I can't relate any of them to Amyjopet's information at this stage.

[rowena]

There are two main branches of Shuggs - St Ives and Sithney. They link back circa 1654. The group of Shuggs who appeared in early records in Maryborough, Victoria were 2 brothers and their cousin who had travelled from Adelaide with their wives, most likely by local shipping as we have a dictated letter from one of the wives. She states that they started their journey to the goldfields after camping by the Yarra River in Melbourne. Havn't yet been through local mariner records between mid 1854 and May 1855 when the 1st child was born in Maryborough, to confirm this.

The Shugg family from Sithney/Helston was James Shugg, wife Elizabeth (Pascoe) and their children, plus nephews John and Thomas Shugg, sons of John Shugg and Mary Ivey. They arrived Adelaide, South Australia on the ship "Mary Green" in 1854. The transcribed shipping record comes up on Google. James & his wife and some of their children stayed in Sth Australia.

Thomas Shugg was travelling with wife Amelia (Eddy), and brother John married fellow passenger Barbara Ann Hunt (my great grandparents) in 1854 in Adelaide. Cousin Richard Shugg who had arrived earlier on the ship Trafalgar married Catherine Penhall (Kitty). These are the 3 young couples who travelled by bullock dray to Maryborough early in 1855. Most of their descendants moved away from the area within a generation.

Rowena (who is obsessivley collecting information and photos on Shuggs)

I have quite a lot of info on my family who came out to Melb on the Mary Green in 1854.
