1. "Ivory Bight" [1]
Dear List, I have a family member that is reported as having died in 1880 at "Ivory Bight", apparently near Launceston. Does anyone have any suggestions where this place is or was? It could be the name of a property, or a district or town. Thanks in advance, - Tony Sadleir Launceston jagro@bigpond.net.au

3. Re: [AUS-Tas] Mary Vallance [1]
Thanks Sue, It has been suggested that there were two Mary Vallances, one free and one a convict, that would certainly solve the problem neatly. But I shall visit your site and absorb the info.

5. Re: AUS-Tasmania-D Digest V05 #187 [1]
Just in case you weren't aware Bevelyn and Lynn... The mouth of the Mersey river is where Devonport is situated, and where the Spirit of Tasmania 1, 2 & 3 sail from. I'm not sure about the location upstream, but I wouldn't have thought it would be near Cradle Mountain at all. Maybe the walls though. I searched these place name sites: http://www.ga.gov.au/map/names/ http://www.thelist.tas.gov.au/index.html but didn't find anything with Macy in the name.

6. crimes of women convicts [1]
Dear Lists, I am doing some research on John Pascoe Faulkner. He married Eliza Cobb, she arrived on the Maria 1 in 1818 to NSW and then came to Hobart the same year. Her crime was child stealing. I was wondering if there many other women convicted of this crime.

8. Re: dixon family Meander [1]
Maureen I'm also researching Dixons (Dickson) in Tasmania but I don't recognise the names you've listed. I'm looking for information on Thomas Charles Dickson, born in Tasmania about 1835, his parents were Charles Dixon and Sarah Snell. I have no idea where the family lived in Tasmania. Do these ring any bells? Thomas' birth does not seem to be listed on the BDM index or the Tasmanian Colonial Links site.

9. Re: [AUS-Tas] Thomas Johnson and Dolly Dalrymple [1]
Hello Frances, I have an explanation on the 15 children, as opposed to 8 - There were several children that died as infants - Hart/Artie (1880-1883), Amelia (1882-1882), Henry George (1884-1885), Unnamed (1889-1889) and Amy (1901-1901) all died when they were all under the age of 3, so were not mentioned in the obituary for Henry. Of the other children, I have the following ten: William (1878-1971) Ada (1883-1870) - must be the Mrs S Burgess? Strange she married a Burgess - her mothers maiden name!
10. Re Surgeon's Journal [1]
Hello List, Can anyone tell me if it is possible to get copy of Surgeon's Journals? If they have been copied onto Microfilm for the AJCP can anyone tell me how to go about getting a copy. I am in outer SE Melbourne. I am particularly interested in William Glen Anderson arriving Hobart in November 1831. Thank you Jac
11. RE: [AUS-Tas] Mersey River [1]
Hi Hayley, That's a good search site you listed. I got the map out, you're right Mersey River meets the sea at Devonport; and starts with an arm in each of The Walls of Jerusalem National Park and Cradle Mountain National PARK (not near the mountain itself), not all that far from Lake Rowallan (which is a wider part of the river). If Bevelyn's ancestor was sent to Mersey River, she has a reasonably long waterway to explore ... maybe more likely to be closer to Devonport, as nearer the source may not have
12. Research Topic: Convict Clothing [1]
Hello list I am researching convict clothing (or costume as they say in the museum business) for VDL/Tasmania during the period 1803 - 1870s. Some you may have convict records of your ancestors that include references to particular types of clothing. These may include linen shirts, corduroy trousers, bone buttons or special constable's capes aside from the usual parti-coloured costume we are most familiar with. I am especially interested to hear if anyone had a convict or institutional ancestor who

Hello Lee-ann You could find that the book "Holycross: The Story of the O'Mara Family" by Judith Borrick from Qld is able to answer some of your questions. It is the story of the MARA / O'MARA / O'MEARA family from Tipperary IRE, who came to VDL in 1830 It won the Lilian Watson Family History Award last year.

18. Age of convicts [1]
Hi Listers, Is there a way of finding out the age of a convict at the time he was transported ? (apart from CON records) I'm not sure if the person I'm looking for was a convict but there were 26 convicts with the same name and if I could eliminate some of them before attacking the CON records it would be a great help.. TIA Peter Arnold.

Dear Listmembers, My grandmother was Elizabeth DENTON, born on 10 Jan 1875 in Oxford, England. She married my grandfather Walter Henry LINDSEY on 29 Apr 1903 at Paparata, South Auckland. It is known that Elizabeth DENTON travelled first to Australia, possibly to Tasmania, about 1894 before coming on to New Zealand. She worked for a minister's family. I would be grateful for any guidance as to passenger lists, immigration records etc. that I could access to look for her. Thankyou, John Johnston
21. RE: Convict's crimes. [1]
Hello Pat and List Members One of my convict ancestors, John Arnold MAWER, was sentenced whilst at Macquarie Harbour for 'making away with the public bread entrusted to his care as baker' - he was dismissed from his position as baker and given 25 lashes. This same John MAWER, after receiving his CP, married and had a large family - on the early birth certificates he was listed as labourer, then farmer, and towards the end of his children's births, he was listed as landowner and gentleman! He was still pr

On-line searches suggest he may have married Louisa DENNER in 1866, with children Rosanne (1868), James (1876) & Louisa (1877). I would be very grateful for any information on this family.
