Hi Roger,
Thanks for your reply. You are correct I have discovered a lot since my initial post. Samuel Swan was born 17/11/1811 Bobbing. He was the 2nd eldest of 12 although others think he was the eldest. His 3 brothers Richard, Henry and Edward went to Australia as well as some of his nephews. Had Samuel not had the convict stain on his record he would possibly have been even more recognised for his achievements. He died quite a wealthy man.
Cheers  :)
