    Good morning everyone and happy new year to all,

    I've been a bit quite lately tracing a line of my husband's family who were free settlers and have come to a halt at a gentleman called Thomas Thompson. I would like to find out if Thomas was a convict but as there is little to be read about him I am wondering if anyone may know anything about the Thomas Thompsons who came to the colony in the early 1800's. There were a few of them.

    My Thomas married a Catherine Critchley in 1831 Newcastle area. Catherine was the daughter of a marine of the 48th Regiment and was born in Tasmania. Thomas died in 1842 in Sydney and a transcript of his death says he was a coloured man. I am assuming this meant he was from the West Indies or Africa and not an Aborigine as from what I have read so far most Aboriginal deaths are recorded that way. I have emailed the person who has claimed a Thomas Thompson on the Claim a Convict site but had no response and am wondering if anyone may be related to the Critchley family who settled in the Maitland area or the Hurley or Palmer families of the same area as poor Catherine Thompson nee Critchley married Farrell Hurley in 1843 after Thomas died but Farrell then died and Catherine married a Mr Palmer and they lived "happily together until Catherine's death.

    I hope everyone has a successful year of searching and maybe I will get to see some of you at various places that I will be visiting when I come to Sydney in early February.

    Regards Anne in Townsville

    Hello John,
    I'm wondering if your information can go back further. My Critchleys hailed from Wheelton, Lancashire. My great-great-great grandfather was William Critchley. He was born between 1772 and 1785. He married a Catherine Murphy and ended up in Australia via the 48th Northumberland Regiment. Catherine was from Ireland. I would love more to find out more about him.

    Buried:

    From Barbara Wyatt

    Hi Dennis,
    Thanks for your reply. I would love to read the information you have. William and Catherine had more than 3 children. There was Catherine (your ancestor), Ann (my gggmother), Jacob (who died in infancy), Martha, William, George (died aged 16), Elizabeth (who married the founder of Ashton's Circus), Jane and Carolline (who died aged 10 weeks). W & C were married before coming to Australia and only settled in Maitland when William left his regiment. I was aware of the Kelly connection but would love to chat with you. I am in touch with a cousin (Robyn)closer biologically to you than me. Maybe you have already had contact with her.
    Cheers, Barbara
