Hi Jamie Lee

The information you want may be at the Tasmania archives. They have very few online indexes for free settlers. An email to them may provide some information

 hi jamielee, the ship was the claudine, if you write to the scottish record office you can get davids trial record , very impresive record. tasmania archives also records on david and family. regards mark lepp, mooroopna victoria australia 3629. ps. australian archives news papers follow promps do surname search , papers go back early 1800's david mentioned many times

Hi to you all

I use "Tasmanian Names Index" .  Not bad, and I use it for Births Deaths & marriages.

It is the Tasmanian Govt site - Linc/Tasmania.
