Curious:

Qld. birth 1873/B16260 Merry Thomas Frank - Thomas Frederick - Elizabeth Ellen Pain

Qld. death 1912/C05084 Merry Elizabeth Ellen - John Paui - Mary Knapp

Looks as though 'Paui' is an error and it should be Pain.

I wonder if I should ask Tas Archives if they have an arrival for Thomas.

Nothing in the Arrivals or Departures database.

I'd email them Dave. They are really good to work with and will help where they can. They told me not all their passenger lists are on line as yet.

Ok. It will be an early arrival.

I presume he was not a convict although I'm in need of one. :biggrin:
