Hello Meryl, I would like the following information about Thomas Powell who is my great great grandfather to be placed in your newsletter please. "I wonder if anyone knows the cemetery where Thomas Powell is buried - he was working on a farm in Eastbourne owned by a Mr. Hewitt. The following is a newspaper report of his inquest. He was born in 1815 and originated from Carmarthen, South Wales, and was a convict arriving on Norfolk Island in November 1844 on the Agincourt and then transferred to Tasmania in 1846 on the Lady Franklin. Also does anyone know if there are photographs available of the convicts or any other further information about him would be very welcome please. AVOCA. (From our own Correspondent 16.4.1880.) The inquest on the body of Thomas Powell, who met his death by falling off a stack at Eastbourne, was held here last Saturday, Mr Stephen Grueber, Sen., being Coroner, and Mr C. W. Foster foreman of a jury of seven. There being nothing of a mysterious nature in connection with his death, the proceedings were of a simple form. The evidence of Mr Hewitt and one of his men went to show that they were in the yard, where the deceased was thatching a stack, when suddenly they heard him exclaim " Oh !" and saw him fall from the stack. On going to him, they found that the poor fellow was quite dead. Dr. Hoskins held a post-mortem, and found that death resulted from two bones of the neck having been broken. A verdict of accidental death was therefore returned. The deceased was a quiet old man and was spoken of by his employer as being a trustworthy servant." Kind regards Eve.
