Thomas & Ellen's son, "'Thomas'", fell off the end of Tasmania,
and his fall was only broken by the Long White Clouds of New Zealand,
where the All Blacks, Maoris, 30 million sheep & 3 million people now reside.
Thomas jr & Annie beget Bill & 3 daughters 
Bill & Vera beget Brian (me) 2 sons & 1 daughter 

Banking was my business, but as we couldn't bank on the weather in good old
Invercargill we retired to Queensland with 2 children; 3 children in Sydney;
1 in New Zealand; in Guernsey two grandsons. Over 30 years have,
with the help of others, pieced together most of the descendants of the
 three brothers, Thomas, John , and Patrick who arrived in Australia in 1852.
Any inquiries from relatives , or interested persons, will be welcome..
