Hi all

Message for Tony Cocks,

I am also researching Parkhurst exiles for a PhD project - in particular Thomas Chapman who arrive on the 'Maitland' in November 1846 - and some related matters.

Could you get in touch by email please - I have sent you a personal message with the email address.

Thanks

Doug Wilkie

Hi Phil ... My husband was a descendant from William Matthews-and I think we were the first to research him ,started 1988 and was at a reunion in 1995? at the hall in Bullioh I know Carol and Malcom H.  I live in Brisbane and husband Ross died last year
I know of no other Matthews that came on the same ship.
I think Amanda would be a desendant of Ruby and I have a photo of Alice and Jack Rapsey Most my later information came from Carol and includes letters about the school Mary started and also to the Education Department about stating a public school
Yes I must still have stories about the prison and how the boys were trained will take me a while to find it but I would not have thrown it out Happy to pass on any information and photo copy
I am new to this site so how do I go about sending my e-mail etc Happy to meet you all Curlie
