Thank you for getting back to me on this Diane.
As you are no doubt aware this business is very frustrating but a little addictive at the same time!
The only information I have is that my great grandfather was born in Monmouth Wales and died in Paddington Sydney, in 1926. He married in Morpeth NSW in 1878.  His parents were Martin Harris and Susannah Jenkin and it is stated on his death certificate that his father Martin was an Innkeeper.
That's about all the info I have.  If you have anything that maybe correlates with this I would be most grateful.
Thanks again,
Therese

Hello Anniebelle,
This fellow Thomas Hynes aka Edward Lyons is my great, great, grandfather.
Native of Co Kildare and convicted of horse stealing and sentenced to Life. Transported to Port Jackson in 1825 on the 'Lonach'. A Ploughman by trade 5'7' grey eyes, fair hair.
His wife Mary Massat and two children Edward and Margaret  travelled to Australia in 1834. They may have been listed as Hynes or Lyons.
By 1837 he has become Lyons and no use of the name Hynes is used again. He was pardoned in 1840.

Hope this information is of help.
Therese
