Hello all I wonder if there are any listers  who connect with James Harper,  a convict, born 1799 in Aberdeen Scotland, came to Tasmania on the ship Sophia in 1837 and died in Hobart in 1876. Would be very glad to hear about John's life and family if he had one.  Thanks Judith Harper Nelson, New Zealand

HI, this may interest some of you who have wondered where someone has their dark skin colouring from.  I hadnt realsied that so many countries were involved, most seem to be transportees from so many countires to Van diemans land.  Quite a bit of information and also you can be taken to the  convicts page.  Not all convicts.  I was  looking for a William Wells and did a google search it took me here but I never  found one. https://vdlworldimmigrants.wordpress.com/listing-of-people/ The reason I am looking for a William Wells is because  so many including me are stumped as to who the real William Wells is for us.  There are not any clues really.  At least two were assinged to Evandale;, but the one  from the Triton who rec ently Peter Oakley thought may be the one  apparently went on the Shamrock to Victoria just six weeks prior to his marriage to maria Griffin aged 16.  We havent seen him come back.  I am told by a friend though, she had two convicts who went tot he goldfields in the 1850's and came back as they were her ancestors, but  she doesn know when or how they came back.  I am trying to eliminate all William Wells in order to find the right one.  So far William Hobart Wells was born in Hobart and died in South Australia, he  isnt the one though some have him as such on ancestry.  the Kent William ona Asia 5t isnt either he died in 1880 in Hobart Hospital also on  ancestry.  Another researcher has  the ANSON  William Wells as he was born 1820 like the William who married Griffin, buthe was married he did go to Evandale like  the TRITON William Wells.  so tring to find a William Wells who went to Evandale on assignment and stayed there and raised a family with Maria Griffin. We need the right William Wells on the right ship.  So a bit of proof is what is needed. I am being sent a  pedigree from the Evandale Hstorical Society this week from a researcher from the 1990's, so I hope it is different from the ones stated I have didmissed already.  Does anyone know the right William Wells who was assigned to Evandale and rented Nile farm for a time post 1849.  there was on on the Marquis hastings the same ship, that maria Griffins convict father arrived on in 1842 but  it seems as if there are reasons he isnt the one, then  I am wondering could Maria Griffin aged 15 on arrival could have met a William Wells on the William Jardine, a ship carrying convicts families to Van Diemans land arriving in 1849. Can anyone help here please.  Our William was 30 in 1850 at his marriage to Maria Griffin.  I believe there are around 25 William Wells convicts, some would be too early to be him.  I may have to see if any DNA matches in the end.  I know of the ones we match with already as they are on the pedigree charts and can be traced but they are getting it wrong as well. The facts need to add up and they just do not. thanks for any help Edie McArthur

Julia, I have just had a quick look at Cecil Hedley's birth. His father was a farmer and they lived at Hollow Tree, Jericho at the time of his birth. So, he most likely had whatever education he got at the local schoolhouse if they were still living there in his school years, or the nearest schoolhouse to his home. School houses were dotted in settlements and country areas, within what was then considered a reasonable walking distance for a child to get to. It could be up to five miles. Most children only went to year six, and worked on their parents' farm at all other times. You usually had to be a scholarship child or have well-off parents to go further. Most people still considered it unnecessary for their children to be educated further. My own father, the second youngest child in a family of six children, left school at thirteen in 1929 to work and help support his mother, brothers and sisters. I am sure there will be a person on the list with more exact knowledge of schools in the area. Are there stories of Cecil Hedley "running away to sea"? I found these two articles in Tasmanian newspapers regarding a CECIL SALMON in 1938. A fishing accident in Sydney. I found nothing for a Hedley in the Tasmanian papers. http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article52210020 http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article25466613 Cheers, Wynnette. -----Original Message----- From: Julia Crawley [mailto:jmcc21@bigpond.com] Sent: Saturday, 16 March 2019 6:46 PM To: aus-tasmania@rootsweb.com Subject: [AUS-Tas] CECIL HEDLEY SALMON born 1876 at Oatlands Hi List - This is my first posting and am trying to find some details about the early life of my grandfather Cecil Hedley Salmon [but always known as Hedley] who was born at Oatlands to John and Clara Salmon [nee Nichols] I am after any details re his schooling and where he may have gone to school.

Hi Chris, I noted that mining licence you mentioned as well and thought it might have been him. There is also a Thos. Clarke applying for a licence for the Homeward Reef, Costerfield L50 in 1891 - https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/187987283?searchTerm=%22thos%20clark%22&searchLimits=notWords|||requestHandler|||anyWords|||l-advstate=Victoria|||exactPhrase=thos+clark|||dateTo|||l-decade=189|||l-title=806|||dateFrom|||sortby=dateAsc <https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/187987283?searchTerm=%22thos%20clark%22&searchLimits=notWords%7C%7C%7CrequestHandler%7C%7C%7CanyWords%7C%7C%7Cl-advstate=Victoria%7C%7C%7CexactPhrase=thos+clark%7C%7C%7CdateTo%7C%7C%7Cl-decade=189%7C%7C%7Cl-title=806%7C%7C%7CdateFrom%7C%7C%7Csortby=dateAsc> Further - https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/169573395?searchTerm=%22thos%20clark%22&searchLimits=notWords|||requestHandler|||anyWords|||l-advstate=Victoria|||exactPhrase=thos+clark|||dateTo|||l-decade=189|||l-title=806|||dateFrom|||sortby=dateAsc <https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/169573395?searchTerm=%22thos%20clark%22&searchLimits=notWords%7C%7C%7CrequestHandler%7C%7C%7CanyWords%7C%7C%7Cl-advstate=Victoria%7C%7C%7CexactPhrase=thos+clark%7C%7C%7CdateTo%7C%7C%7Cl-decade=189%7C%7C%7Cl-title=806%7C%7C%7CdateFrom%7C%7C%7Csortby=dateAsc> Then in 1892 for Try Again - https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/174510334?searchTerm=%22thos%20clark%22&searchLimits=notWords|||requestHandler|||anyWords|||l-advstate=Victoria|||exactPhrase=thos+clark|||dateTo|||l-decade=189|||l-title=806|||dateFrom|||sortby=dateAsc <https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/174510334?searchTerm=%22thos%20clark%22&searchLimits=notWords%7C%7C%7CrequestHandler%7C%7C%7CanyWords%7C%7C%7Cl-advstate=Victoria%7C%7C%7CexactPhrase=thos+clark%7C%7C%7CdateTo%7C%7C%7Cl-decade=189%7C%7C%7Cl-title=806%7C%7C%7CdateFrom%7C%7C%7Csortby=dateAsc> I'm sure I also say a reference to a T Clark and the Perseverance Reef in 1893-4 and the licence going over to someone else but darned if I can find it. All that's really interesting to note is he seems to peter out around 1893-94 and there was a Thomas Clark admitted to the Bendigo Benevolent Aslyum in May 1893 who died there 21 Dec 1894. - https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/183320644?searchTerm=%22thomas%20clark%22&searchLimits=l-advstate=Victoria|||sortby=dateAsc|||l-decade=189|||l-year=1894 <https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/183320644?searchTerm=%22thomas%20clark%22&searchLimits=l-advstate=Victoria%7C%7C%7Csortby=dateAsc%7C%7C%7Cl-decade=189%7C%7C%7Cl-year=1894> I know there are records for that Asylum available just not available online yet. Be interestingto see if any kin are mentioned in his record. If it turned out to be Maria's husband then we would have a Tassie link because he came to VDL per Lord Auckland in 1844 as a convict... Looking at his age though I think he might be a wee bit old to be Maria's husband?
