HI Lesley Thanks for the advice, I won't bother putting any more requests on this list I don't think. I will try another avenue to find out when Michael returned back from Norfolk Island this is really important to me sorry to bother you Dianna

Hi Dianna You could try looking up several books on the early history of Norfolk Island. "Forgotten Generation of Norfolk Island and Van Diemens Land" by Reg Wright, on page 102 under the heading Convicts to Port Jackson from Norfolk Island on HMS Investigator - 28 February 1805 - Harrington 23 February 1805, list includes a Michael Burn. No Michael Hayes or Sutton in the general index. No source given that I could see. cheers Grahame On 01/09/2011, at 4:12 PM, dianna charles wrote: > HI Lesley > Thanks for the advice, I won't bother putting any more requests on this > list I don't think.

Hi Grahame Many thanks for your reply, that's interesting re Michael Burn, So this maybe him coming back to Port Jackson and then he was in trouble September 1805 apparently sent there (again?). So now I'm trying to find out when he came back after he was sent there in September 1805. He bought property in Sydney in 1805 as well so he was really on the go. Many thanks I will try and find some of the books on Norfolk. kind regards Dianna
