Dear Listers, I am wondering if there is any one on the list who may have William Sutton in their tree. William married Elizabeth Annie Gumley in Cobar NSW 27th August 1894.I have looked every where I can think of for the death of this man. He is the only one of 14 children who I cannot find a death or burial. Hoping some one can help me. Cheers Elaine

>From The Hobarton Mercury, 17 October 1856 - LOCAL NEWS Emigrants Breaking their Agreement.--Andrew Aherne, and Ellen Aherne, for being about to leave the Colony, contrary to their agreement. The Solicitor-General said that some notice ought to be taken of the case. It was hard upon the people who were taxed for the purpose of paying these peoples' passages, in order to secure the advantage of their labor. Mr. Rogers further said that there was no necessity for Aherne and his wife leaving the Colony. The man had been engaged at the Public Works Department at £1 1s. per week, and the female bad been in the service of Captain Foster. Mr. Smith the Emigration Agent proved the debt due by the prisoners for their passage. Mr. Burgess fully concurred in the view of the matter adopted by the Solicitor General. He considered it ungrateful on the part of those who came out under the regulations, to endeavour to evade the repayment, and deprive the colony of the services for which it was paid. It was an act of dishonesty. The Solicitor-General suggested to the Bench, that a short sentence would answer the purpose as a warning to others. The male prisoner was sentenced to three months' imprisonment with hard labor ; the female to three days without hard labor. They left the Court in great distress. It was not stated what was to be done with the prisoners' children. ------------------------------------------------ Historic Australian Newspapers, 1803 to 1954 http://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper Aherns in Australian Records http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~aherns/ahcrim.htm ------------------------------------------------

>From The Courier [Hobart, TAS], 27 March 1855 - SHIPPING NEWS. HOBART TOWN THE BLACK BALL CLIPPER OCEAN CHIEF. More than usual stir has been created in the port by the arrival of the Ocean Chief, the first of the Black Ball line of clippers despatched by Messrs. James Baines & Co., of Liverpool, under the Bounty system. The universal attention bestowed upon this noble craft has induced us to throw together the following particulars: She left the Mersey on the 11th January, passing the Rock Light at 2.30 p.m., the steamer having her in tow left on the 12th at 2 p.m. ; From the 11th to the 17th January she experienced very heavy gales, accompanied by rain. On the last mentioned day the Ocean Chief sighted a fleet and exchanged signals with the ship Vision at 9.30 a.m., Madeira lying then S.S. West distant 50 miles. Every ship was standing to the westward, except the Ocean Chief, but as soon as this vessel passed the fleet every one tacked and stood the same way as the Ocean Chief, lat. 33° 43' north ; long. 17° 16' west. On the 18th she spoke the clipper schooner Sverge, a private vessel belonging to Sir John Tobin, 13 days from Liverpool, on her passage to Benin. On the 26th February by the violence of the wind the mainsail was split to pieces, the gale on the 28th being most terrific and squally, and it was as much as the ship could do to stagger under double-reefed main topsails, until about ten at night, when the squalls moderated. There was no other circumstance of note to be mentioned as having occurred during the voyage, and this splendid vessel, her passengers in good health, and herself in good condition, came to anchor in the stream off Hobart Town about half-past five on Sunday night. This gives her but 72 days 7 hours from anchor to anchor. [The Ocean Chief sailed from Liverpool 11 January 1855, arrived 25 March, 370 adults and 114 children under 14 in steerage. 10 deaths and 8 births. Captain T. J. Tobin of Black Ball line.] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dennis Ahern | Immigrant Ships Transcribers Guild, Irish Maritime News Acton, Mass. | http://immigrantships.net/newsarticles/newsarticles.html - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Sorry, I just noticed this one. I think that it is more likely a "family thing." I don't know of any legal status of guardian at that time (or now.) Doug. Vic Solicitor, There was an issue with the Ryerson address today. I understand that it has been fixed, but may take time to filter through the DNS servers.
