Posted on: House Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/FamilyAssoc/House/144 Surname: House, Harpon, Harper ------------------------- I have a Joseph House who was sent to Australia in 1835 as a convict. His occupation was a top sawyer and his home was in Hampshire, his parents were Joseph House and Susan Harpon (Harper) He had a very interesting 50 years in Australia where he helped to shape Victoria, from a sawyer, to a butcher and then a coach proprietor. He had two surviving sons Joseph and Edward Charles House. He had a tattoo of a lady with the letters LH on his leg, maybe this may help someone to recognise him as part of their family.
