ArgyllGran Report 13 Jul 2024 15:57

Aha! I've now found another (claiming to be complete) newspaper list of passengers for the Warwick' voyage leaving UK on either 10 or 11 Oct 1874, depending on which report you look at.

This report:

EMIGRANTS FOR AUCKLAND.
Daily Southern Cross, Volume XXX, Issue 5412, 28 December 1874, Page 2

Passenger names are divided into groups: Families, Single Men, and Single Women.
"Families" includes William and Susan.
"Single women" includes Fanny, 19.

She isn't a child of William and Susan - DOB proves that, and also mmn.

Where families in the "Families" list include children, even adult "children", they are all listed together, but Fanny Claydon, 19, single woman, is listed separately.

I think it's just a coincidence of name.

Jink -
I don't see any record of a marriage of William and Emma.
