This William TASKER was a convict to VDL .
His birth date tallies with reported age at death.

Had you looked at this possibility before?

That's interesting, as I have been searching for 'Hateridge' and have found nothing other then his birth. Then I found a VIC birth to a 'Gutheredge' Joseph TASKER and Mary Ann SAMPSON. This is the only reference to the couple I can find.

Then on Trove I found references to Tasker Sampson's in TAS.

There is also a burial for a George Utterage Tasker at Karrakatta and the age fits with the Hateridge birth in 1867.

This looks like William TASKER departing VDL for Melbourne in 1852.

No image unfortunately.

This English marriage would also agree with the information in the convict records.

William TASKER
Marriage Date 22 Apr 1832
Marriage Place Baldock,Hertford,England
Spouse Ann FARR   
FHL Film Number 991305

Still can't be sure he is the chap who married KENNEDY.
