Hi Carlene, Looks like he could be the Thomas Jones who arrived on the Asia (5) in 1827. Founders & Survivors names his father as Edward Fletcher. http://foundersandsurvivors.org/pubsearch/convict/chain/c31a31230400 regards, Meryl Yost, Launceston, Tasmania ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Administrator: AUS-Tasmania & AUS-Tas-Surnames mailing lists AUS-Tasmania Genealogy pages http://www.rootsweb.com/~austashs/ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carlene via" <aus-tasmania@rootsweb.com> To: <AUS-TASMANIA@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, October 24, 2014 3:09 PM Subject: [AUS-Tas] Re. Thomas (Fletcher) Jones Hi All, I need help with my brick wall please. Looking for the arrival of a Thomas JONES he would have arrived before 1838 when he married Elizabeth Flannagan who was a Convict on their certificate and Thomas stated free, was he a convict or a soldier, when his first child was born he added the second name Fletcher, my interest is with his second son James Fletcher Jones as be married my Smelt. Any help would be most appreciated. TIA. Carlene Smelt Hot and Dry Queensland.
