he appears in Victorian shipping news (The Age 25 Jan 1866) as having imported a package from Dunedin on the Claud Hamilton on 18 Jan 1866. Perhaps he arrived first in Australia in 1865 (see ref 186 of www.barrow-lousada.org which seems to have a few errors) as the ship he came on was the Tararua which is a NZ name and it came from Bluff Harbour a probable intermediate stop on the Dunedin-Melbourne trip.

Travelled by ship via New York 24 Sep 1868 (NY Passenger lists)

Sydney Mail 6 February 1869 records Lousada arriving from Panama and Wellington on the Ruahine on 3 Feb 1869

A Lousada arrived Hobson's Bay 30 Apr 1870 on the Western 'from Portland via Belfast = Port Fairy' (see Argus 2 May 1870) - this was probably H B Lousada.

On 29 Jun 1870 H Lousada left Brisbane for Sydney on Lady Young (probably H A Lousada who was in Roma in early 1869) arrived 1 Jul 1870 and probably the same Lousada on 13 Jul left for Melbourne on Rangotira.

Thus around 1870 the 2 brothers coincided in Melbourne and together they engaged in saltmaking at Hastings (see recollections of Horace Frank Lousada on www.barrow-lousada.org).
