Biography
John Armistead migrated from England to Queensland.
John Armistead was born before 1830 in England, United Kingdom. We know from the marriage record that his father's name is John, a surveyor.
John married Sarah Ballance on 22 April 1855 in the parish church St. Marks, in Hulme, Lancashire. [1][2]
The family migrated to the Colony of Queensland (Australia). John, wife Sarah and little Francis traveled on the ship Fiery Star, arriving in Australia on 20 November 1864. (see attached photo)
There is a FindAGrave memorial[3]for John, however there are no images. When searching Queensland death records online, there is no document image. [4]
