Robert Have you checked the Maitland Mercury Index. Sometimes famous people not just from the Hunter are mentioned in the paper, as it was the first and biggest provincial publication in the colony and covered events from PJ. Norfolk Is, Tasmania, South Coast, etc. I can have a look between 1843-46 when I am at history cottage next weekend.
