Hi Rhonda, Have you canvassed the idea that Thomas may not be a convict at all? There are two listed as Thomas Wood born in the colony - one in 1811 and the other in 1825. The first one to Charles and Ann in 1811 and the second to Thomas and Eliza in 1825. Perhaps his father might have been a convict?
