Australia Lookups completed / Re: Tasmanian Browne Family

To Chell,

I am related to this family and can give you a lot of details re Thomas Browne's (the soldier) family. Just to whet your appetite, Thomas' father was Joseph Steere Browne (DACG) b.~1791. Joseph was in Tasmania in the late 1820s; was in Albany, Western Australia in 1830s; left Albany in 1836 on the 'Harvest' for the Cape; and ended up in Canada where he died in Toronto on 24 Dec 1848. Thomas was one of 10 children (that I know of). Thomas was the eldest son and 2nd child. One of his brothers was Joseph Browne (my GGG grandfather) who ended up in Sydney and married into the dynastic Tooth family.

cheers,
Herb

Hi Jonjor,

Without any specific name or dates/places it is very difficult to know how your ancestor fits in. For interests sake the name Hesling in England was almost exclusively in the West Riding of Yorkshire. It is thought the Hesling clan from England all come from one, possibly two Hesling families that migrated from a town near the German/Dutch border in the late 1600s or early 1700s. I have most of the Hesling's that lived in the 1800s so if you can find any more detail I might be able to connect something ?? Of course there were a lot of migrations to other countries too (America/Australia).

regrds,
Herb
