John Drew arrived in Sydney Australia Aboard the Adam's Lodge on the 14th Feburary 1840. He arrived with his wife Elisa Drew and their Children, George 19, Standish 16, William 14, Charlotte 12, Cath 10 and Sarah 8yrs old. John stated his Mother name as Mary and Father as John. His wife Elisa stated mother name as Cath Clark and Father as Peppard no first name noted. Their Religion was Prot. Native place was note as Limerick but on George their sons form Dramlohan was typed. I have had trouble tracing Elisa heritage as with not much to go on it leads to wrong conclusions.

    Irish press warns against Jamaican Indentured Servitude

    <p>The theme was always the same: the pestilential climate of the island, the reduction of poor emigrants to slaves, the severity and cruelty of the planters (and planter-dominated Assembly clinging to every vestige of oppression) and, of course, the absence of priests and chapels.</p>
