John Bradley, {born in Australia} was
* 1803 born England
* 1836 married Charlotte DALLISON in England
* 1839 immigrated to Australia on "Royal Admiral"

His wife Charlotte Bradley, (Free Settler "Royal Admiral" 1839)
* no date of birth (father born 1792, mother born 1793 and they were married in 1811)
* 1836 married John BRADLEY in England

John and Charlotte had children
* 1821 Vashti Ann Bradley
* 1831 Indiana J Haskins
* 1834 Mary Kendall Mullard, Free Settler "Royal Admiral" 1839
* 1840 twins Mary Josephine Bradley and John Dallison Bradley
* 1843 Thomas Bradley

Charlotte would have only been around 10 (assuming her parents had her around the time they married) when their first child was born in 1821

If John was in Australia from 1839 and Charlotte did not arrive till 1855 - how are they the parents of children born in 1840 and 1843?

The 1839 "Royal Admiral" passenger list has
John BRADLEY age 36, Charlotte BRADLEY age 27 and Mary BRADLEY age 5 1/2

On John's overview it says that he was a widow when he married Charlotte in 1836, so Vashti, Indiana and Mary Kendall are probably from his first wife.

He only brought Charlotte with him, but Vashti and Indiana were still alive in 1839 - but he left them behind?

If Mary Kendall was alive in 1840, why would he name another daughter Mary Josephine?

I have found an online tree with John BRADLEY and Charlotte DALLISON with children Vashti Ann born 1821 and Indiana J born 1831 - no sources attached.

These children were born in Tennessee, USA
