Hi Sarah
Don't understand your message.  I am not "struggling to decipher handwriting"
Was there a problem with sending four attachments?

Hi Aussie Roy
Just stumbled on your Townson vs Bullock item.  I have quite a lot on the Townsons from 1650 onwards. I attach four of files.  Thomas William (1874-1942) was my grandfather.  My father used to correspond with Australian descendants of Fred. e.g cousins Ern & Dennis. I have a letter dated 1982 from Peggy (West Heidelburg, Vic).
Re the Bullock story ... I would have to check this but I think there was a liaison with farmer Bullock's wife which led to illegitimate Thomas (baptised 1822).  They married (1829) after Bullock's death.
If you are interested, let me know and we can swap data.
