Thomas Brown, son of Robert and Frances Brown was my great great grandfather, and brother of John Brown of Canonbar. He was the owner of the Exchange Hotel in West Maitland NSW and when he died on 26 February 1879 his wife Tamar continued running the hotel. They had 7 children. I would like to find out what happened to Robert Brown after he received his pardon in 1829. Cannot find his or Frances' death dates.,
Robert Brown was convicted of manslaughter in Athlone, County Roscommon in 1824 and sentenced to transportation for life, along with the 4 other watchmen involved in the murder.
