Hi Greg, John Perkins is listed as a Labourer, Fellmonger and Tanner on his children's birth certificates. Appears to have lived at O'Brien's Bridge, Glenorchy through their births. Thee 1856 Electoral Roll has John Perkins occupying a house and land, White and Wright owners. (White and Write had a tannery at O'Brien's Bridge and a leather shop in Elizabeth St, Hobart.) Electoral Rolls up until 1874-5 have him in the same area. Then he disappears?? A John Perkins died at Hobart in 1875, a tanner - https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1961-35346-5753-54?cc=2125029&wc=M7HG-WP8:387523701,387590301,387604401 The General Hospital Record of Deaths book (HSD145) has the same information as the death certificate plus it states he was FS and arrived on the Layton (4).
