I have found a reference to a marriage of a Rhoda Ann Austin to a John Cloak on 3 Mar 1862 at Pontville, Tasmania. I would like to find out if this Rhoda was the daughter of a Richard Austin and a Hannah (of London). Is there any way this can be done please? Any advice much appreciated.

Thank You Very Much - Missing realtive found!
A sincere thanks to Ginny and Helen for providing me with such a lot of information about Rhoda Austin.
My Gt. Gt. Grandfather and his wife both died young leaving a fairly large family to fend for itself. The youngest child was taken in by a relative, the rest went into service or whatever job was available. I had tracked all the family down except for my Gt Grandfather's sister Rhoda and wondered what had happened to her. She obvioulsy went to look for a new life in Australia, married well and began what appears quite a large dynasty.
In spit of her tragic early life circumstances she did well.
Thanks once again for finding all this information out for me.

Alan :-)
