    3. Many thanks to Judith and MargM who replied to my questions re NSW Passengers 1910-12. Have checked out the web sites suggested but there seems to be a decided lack of info for NSW at that time period, in particular 1911, which of course is bad news for me. However the kindness of these two ladies is appreciated. Llew

Hi Lew There is only one index I know of and that is on a CD for this time period. This CD was published about 3 years ago by WAGS over in Perth ' Arrivals to the Port of Freemantle 1895-1925' Freemantle was usually the first port of call for over seas passenger liners from the UK and many passengers went thru to other AUS ports whose names can be in this index. If this family might be in the index it might be hard to know as passenger often lists in this as Mr & Mr and 3 chd > Can anyone tell me if it is possible to search records for that time > period without going to Sydney. Might be something in http://www.brandis.com.au/links/ships.html Most on the indexing of passnger lists has been for ships arriving in the 1800's. The National Archives have been indexing arrivals 1926 + If this bit of info is lost to this families history you could have alot of pain for not much gain trying it find it Bye MargM Beautiful Central Coast of NSW

    3. Hi Suzanne, Your William Pearson THOMPSON was, according to the Hawkesbury Pioneer Register (Vol 1, pp 188-189), the son of Matthew Pearson THOMPSON, (b 12 Jan 1780, Slingsby, Yorkshire, England, baptised 23 Jan, 1780 - d 9 May 1849, McDonald Valley (NSW), bur St Albans Old General Cemetery). Matthew was a convict who arrived 7 Feb, 1814 (Port Jackson) per the "General Hewitt". Matthew was the son of Richard THOMPSON & Ann ISHERWOOD who were married 12 May 1767 at Slingsby, YKS, ENG. Matthew was married in England to Ann EARLE (b ca. 1783 ENG, dau of William/Robert & Mary EARLE), she died 17 Aug 1868, McDonald Valley, bur St Albans Old Gen Cem. There are further details of William's siblings, and an entry for William & his children on the same pages + an entry for Elizabeth EWING/EWENS/HEWINSE/EWINGS and her parents on page 53. There are several contributors listed for the various entries of the above, in the Hawkesbury Pioneer Register. The Broxbornebury arrived at Port Jackson on 28 July 1814. There is also an entry for William Pearson THOMPSON & Elizabeth EWING on Lesley Uebel's "Claim a Convict" web pages (http://users.bigpond.net.au/convicts/) under "Hawkesbury Settlers", "T". Matthew Pearson THOMPSON the Convict has been "claimed" by several people on Lesley' pages who would no doubt be willing to share info.
