Hello Maree,
I saw this thread yesterday and joined rootschat to reply.
I've also been looking for information on Tom St Clair, and have had contact with another person a few years ago about him. She had the same information I had from Auntie Kit, which it seems you also have. I haven't done much research over the last few years.
I started Googling yesterday and I found out some more information which was new.
There was a Thomas St Clair who was a crewman on a ship called the Duncan Dunbar (rings a bell!) which arrived in Sydney in 1864. Listed as 16 years old and was a cuddy servant.
I'm going to look into this a bit more, finding that snippet yesterday was a Eureka moment! he has been very difficult to trace.
