Good Morning Listers, My First Fleet Ancestor is Thomas Restell Crowder who is my great great great grandfather. He arrived on the Alexander, and was shortly after sent to Norfolk Island. He married and had some children (not sure how many) and when his first wife died he married Mary Christmas (Lady Juliana). They stayed on Norfolk Island until 1807 when they set sail for Hobart Town sailing on the Porpoise and arriving 1808 where they were given 100 acres. My great great grandfather Thomas Restell Crowder was born in Hobart. Good to hear others stories.
