Dear Cassy, I have looked through all your correspondence on this site as well as your Warner entry on the Wheathampstead site and can see there is a strong case linking you to Thomas Brindle or Brindell who had a son George. However, I cannot see any evidence linking the George Brindle transported to NSW with Thomas from Luton; you say they are brothers but do not mention how you reached this conclusion. Could you please enlighten me?
