JEN 10 was enquiring regarding THOMAS CANNON and VERA TYLER - I am the grandson (now 69) of that couple.
I never met Thomas (he died before my birth) but they had three children - Veronica Olive (known as Rita), Keith and Charles.
I have a photo of Thomas and several photos of Vera (buried at Carr Villa Cemetery).
Thomas was a fisherman and sail maker and the above families ran one of the most successful fish shops in Launceston - on the corner of George Street.
A trivia is that he caught a fish that had never been seen before and it is in the Launceston Museum.
If you would like detailed info on the children (and their respective families to this day) of Thomas, please let me know.
I'd be curious to know of your connection and the reason for your interest in Thomas ?
Regards,
KEVIN MOORE
