grateful for any information / assistance you could exchange on
"Victorian" Hockley's ancestors in England - I'm not having much
luck in that department I'm afraid!

- Mary Hockley
born circa 1816
in Essex England. Parents were James Hockley, a farrier, and Johanna
Giggins. Mary married Henry Tuttleby (son of William Tuttleby and
Philadelphia Barnes) at Corringham, Essex, in 1837. Mary, 37, and
Henry, 38, left England from Deptford on the ship Sacramento on
Christmas Day, 1852 with three children, Henry, 3, Mary, 13, and baby
Alice Tuttleby. It was a disastrous voyage - seven children under
seven died within the first month, among them one year old Alice
Tuttleby, on Jan 8, 1853. A Melbourne newspaper report says the
ship's doctor had died 10 days after leaving from ``an affection (sic)
of the throat'' and that a chaplain took the surgeon's place. The
ship, before getting clear of England had been detained near the Downs
for nearly a month by weather, which may mean Alice's death was
registered in England. Just before landing in Melbourne,
Australia, the Sacramento was wrecked at Point Lonsdale, Victoria, on
April 26, 1853. No loss of life but Henry is said to have lost his
carpenter's tool chest worth 100 pounds. A new son, Alfred, was
born in Australia in 1854. In total, Henry and Mary had eight or nine
children, all but Alfred born in England, but only Henry and Mary
junior and Alfred survived their parents. Henry Tuttleby senior
died of typhoid only a year after arriving in Australia, while his
wife Mary (Hockley) Tuttleby remarried a James Bogle and died
age 77 on 16 Feb, 1893.
