Thank you - Anthony married Agnes Eliza McGirty in Sydney NSW in 1874 aged 22 years. The other information I have comes from his naturalisation certificate on 9 August 1888. he died 4 April 1905 in Balmain , Sydney aged 54 years, I have the marriage certificate 16.2.1874 his parents are listed as Manuel Lorenzo ( Sailor) and Mary - rights of roman catholic church. Also have his death certificate but have not been able to find anything about his parents or life before Australia
Only references to birth that I have are: - his marriage certificate -16.2.1874 lists him as a sailor aged 23 years - his naturalisation certificate - 9 august 1888 - lists him arriving in Australia in 1861, and advising he is 34 years old, says he is a native of Flores, West Island, Azores - his first son was named Antoni George on his birth certificate ( 3.11.1877 in Balmain Sydney) and the father is named as Antoni George Larence - Mariner , aged 27 from Portugal I do not have a birth date yet - but will shortly visit his grave in Rookwood cemetery and that might help with a date of birth Jane, > > I've worked with 2 other people who had ancestors from Flores, Azores who > immigrated to Australia or New Zealand.
