The ship Westminster, departed London (via Plymouth) 20 Mar 1848, arrived at Port Adelaide on 5 Jul 1848 with passengers (from Plymouth):
GOLDSWORTHY Elizabeth A, GOLDWORTHY J and GOLDSWORTHY M. Emma (possibly with no relatives on board) [4]

There is a death for Elizabeth Wells age 91 in 1921 in Daylesford but that would make her born c1830, which would be consistent with age at marriage. [5]
