Thanks for the information Ruth.  :)

Yes he is the Thomas Sidney transported in 1831

Checked the newspaper site but it is a subscription which I don't have, but at least I have what he was charged for which I didn't have before

Not that I can see, all the Yaxley's I have were from Syderstone prior to coming to Tasmania

Thanks for the reply
Thought there had to be some connection and I hadn't noticed the Tas State Archives entry.
Gives me somewhere to look now.

The Common Room / Newspaper death notice - New Zealand & Bristol papers please copy
« on: Monday 22 July 13 05:28 BST (UK)  »
I have found a death notice in the Launceston, Tasmania "Examiner" newspaper.

Launceston Examiner Wed 20 July 1881
DEATHS.
BURSTON—On the 19th July, at his residence, Brisbane-street, Mr William Burston, aged 72 years. (New Zealand and Bristol papers please copy.)

Would this mean that he had previously lived in both these places.

Hi Kay,
Still nothing on the Andrew Finlayson front unfortunately.

Dublin / Elizabeth O'Reilly
« on: Saturday 08 January 11 05:30 GMT (UK)  »
Looking for information on Elizabeth (Lizzie) O'Reilly who was born in 1859 Raheny, Dublin, to possibly William O'Reilly and Elizabeth Drew.
Lizzie came to Tasmania, Australia aboard the Doric on 11 Mar 1887, she was the lady in waiting to Lady Teresa Hamilton, wife of the new Governer of Tasmania Sir Robert Hamilton.
I am trying to confirm her birth and parents.
Any suggestion as to where I may look

Regards

Garry
