Document - R. J HOWARD CORRESPONDENCE R J HOWARD (CORRESPONDENCE RE), 19/11/1970
R J Howard (correspondence re a R J Howard to Bendigo BHS (19/11/1970) from D Jowett, Mordialloc . This R J Howard arrived in Australia (shipwrecked! At Warrnambool) on 8/11/1853 according to letter. Response from BHS (2/71) gives details of an R J Howard who in ''latter part of 1853'' set up a line of coaches to run between Bendigo and Melbourne. No indication from this whether this may be the ship-wrecked Howard (unlikely to have business established so quickly?? TD). William Murray Ross, born Liverpool England in 1825. Ross sailed in 13/7/1852 on the barque 'Archer' for Melbourne, and arrived on 13/11/1852. It is alleged that R. J. Howard became an M.P. At Bendigo and manager of the Government Savings Bank. Howard was part owner of the 'Archer' with a Mr.Minnet. The 'Archer' ran aground at Warrnambool in 8/11/1853 and was dismantled. Parliamentary papers at Latrobe library show that in 1859-61 and 1864 an R. F. Howard was M.L.A.
