Thomas Daley was in the Maitland district when not in Sydney Gaols during the 1830s.
Thomas DALEY ex the Mangles, born 1803 Co Tyrone, Catholic, Labourer, was 5ft 5 inches, stout, fresh complexion, dark hair, Grey eyes, when committed to Gaol in Sydney in 1838. He had previously (in 1834) been at the Sydney Gaol, sent there from Newcastle, to await a Trial, for which he was found Not Guilty and discharged 12 May 1834. The 1838 trial resulted in a sentence of “Transportation to Norfolk Island 16 October 1838.” He seems to have received a further 7 year sentence of Transportation PS (Penal Servitude) in April 1843.
