Transcriber's and Contributer's family passengers #83-83 Iles
Moses was born 17 Jul 1831 in Eisey, Wiltshire, England.  His parents
were Moses and Catherine Jordan Iles.  Elizabeth was born 21 June 1835
in Cricklade, Wiltshire to William and Francis (Fanny) Telling.  Maria,
who died on this voyage, was born about September 1853 in Cricklade, Wiltshire.

Moses and Elizabeth settled in Newcastle, NSW and had 11 more children.
He was a miner.  Moses died tragically in a fire on 28 Feb 1879 in
Brookstown, Wallsend, NSW and Elizabeth died 21 Jan 1888 in Wallsend.
Newcastle Morning Herald 25 January 1888
In remembrance of Elizabeth Iles, who was taken from us on the
21st January, 1888, age 52.
What is home without a mother?
Oft we miss her loving face;
Dearest friends may try to cheer us,
Yet for mother still we call;
None on earth could be more kind,
When we lost her, we lost all.
Inserted by her loving daughter, Elizabeth Horn.

Moses' brother arrived in NSW in 1860 on the ship Chance with his family,
passage was paid by Moses and Elizabeth.  Passage was also paid for Moses'
sister Maria and another brother William Mark but neither of them left Wiltshire.

Cousins of Moses settled in the US after several more years in England.
