He was given an Absolute Pardon a year after he arrived...that almost never happened Conditional pardons were the norm. I do not think he ever got into trouble.

People never got pensions then...and he never married, probably because he or his spouses (defacto spouses) were married already.

Yes that is what I said, i used to think that mary died giving birth to Albert....and christopher went off to Canberra and married Mary mcdonald. then I realised that she was the mary donelly who married martinjwood and brought up albert george. Once I saw that her sister elizabeth had witnessed her wedding to martin Wood the jig was up so to speak.

that is mary mcdonald who is the 2nd wife of christopher donnelly...NOT my great great grandmother Mary Makin....Mary Mcdonald has nothing whatever to do with me. I think you have gone off piste. Mary makin is who I am descended from NOT mary mcdonald

I am sorry you have lost me completely. christopher Donnelly went to canberra and married mary mcdonald and they had a bunch of children she died in bowral in 1918, he died in Queanbeyan in 1911....how does that death notice prove that that mary makin was not born in nSW? I think perhaps we will leave it at that christopher and mary parted she married martin wood and he married mary macdonald. I do not understand what that has to do with catherine mcarthur. goodbye and once again thanks for you interest.
