Hi He is listed as Orton as they often dropped their H's :) Regards Lesley Uebel mailto:[email protected] -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]]On Behalf Of R.J Mere Sent: Thursday, November 09, 2006 9:31 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [HHHV] William Horton-Convict-1832-Ship The Planter. Have only recently been receiving these messages which I find very interesting. My brother Max & I have been researching William Horton who came to Australia as a convict in 1832. Worked at Patterson NSW for a John Swan, then moved on to work for William Ogilvie & John Cox. William then joined the explorer Henry Stuart Russell before becoming the owner of properties in Toowoomba & Ipswich & the famous Bullshead Inn at Drayton. Does anyone have knowledge of William Horton? We would love to know more.
