Hi Lesley and list, Much was written about my G(6) Grandfather Robert Forrester and for all those that may be interested in him Louise Wilson has just released an extensive book on his life which is worth a read that also mentions a number of others from the fleet but particularly his Scarborough ship mates. Happy Australia Day to all my many many cousins and other descendants of the first fleeters. Regards Rod McDonald Convict ancestors: Robert Forrester 'Scarborough' 1st Fleet 1789, Isabella Jane Ramsay ('MaryAnn' 3rd Fleet), Matthew Lock 'Surprise 1790', Euphram Graham 'Pitt 1792', Thomas Hodgetts 'Scarborough 2nd Fleet, Charles Homer Martin 'Charles Stuart 1818', James Stephenson (Midas2 1827) Non-convict pioneer family interest; Peter McLaren, wife Robina McDiarmid with family aboard 'Hero' from Leith Scotland 1839
