I know more about their family than they did

I wonder whether the child Thomas listed on the 1851 census as the son of Maria CLEMENTS came to Australia with his mother and family.

I have not found a trace of him yet. If his mother moved on quickly after her arrival, I wonder if he was with her.

I have one suspect, based solely upon his age and nothing else.

There are a number of reports of his death, one of which gives his age as 38.
