"Exiles" transported to Port Phillip 1845-1849

[tropicalj]

Hello

If  Josiah Moseley  was  reported  as  going  to Yass,  Tumut  where  he  has  married  is  just down  the  road  a  bit ie  about 200ks  so   he  has  maried  in  Tumut  and  went  back  to  Qld  for a  period of  time  and  then  moved  back  to  McLean  in northern NSW  and  the  down  to  Marickville( an inner suburb of Sydney).

To  put  that  journey  into  perpective  for  you  my own great grandfather  was born  in 1864  in ADelaide was  married  in 1887 in Maryborough  Qld  and moved to Ryde in Sydney in 1889 and  died there  in 1957, a  hell of  a  trip  without  frequent flyer points

It  doesn't  seem  to  have been a  problem  travelling  many thousands  of miles  across  our wonderfull country,  remeber  this  was a  time  of Gold  Fever  everywhere.

Do  you  have  anything  on Pollard Otley and  William Udle  two  very unusual  names  but  I cannot  find  either of  them?

Do  you  still want  help  looking  up  the BDM's  of any of  these lads?

Hello Jenn,

Pollard Otley......he was also referred to in the "Moreton Bay Courier" on 20/10/1849, p.3 as being granted a Conditional Pardon and the only other detail being "Went to Wellington; hired by Miss Boulton - Molong, Wellington".   
William Udle I mentioned to you with regard to his mother's names.   If you can turn up anything on the BDM indexes I would be delighted.........as with Josiah Moseley I shall now create a Biography for him with all the details you unearthed.

I remember flying to Sydney from Melbourne via TAA a couple of times just to go to a party........daft, but happy, days!!!

Regards

Tony

Hello  there  Tony

heavens above  mate  you  must be  as  old as me  to  remember flying "TAA"  "up up and away  with TAA the friendly way"

now  with  a name  like  pollard otley  you  would  think  now worries mate  but  yes  you have guessed it   not  in  nsw  or qld  could  have changed  his  name  but will keep  looking  same as Udle  not  an  Udle  to  behold

Hello Jenn,

I think Josiah Moseley is now pretty well documented and the Biography looks excellent, complete with citations etc.  It is more than pleasing because the boys on the "Randolph" and "Hashemy" have proved so difficult to track down except, unfortunately, those that died before they reached Australia.

My thanks for all your help.......and Genni, too, has been keeping me busy with some great details.

I envy you both moving into Spring and Summer......Autumn/Winter are now just around the corner for us.

Talk to you soon.

Tony
