Hi Anthony,
Welcome to the CATLEY list. I am the list administrator and I too live
in Perth - miles away from you in Bibra Lake near Freo.
I am also a member of Perth Dead Persons' Society and they are a very
lively lot. We have a few members with a particular interest in
convicts. We meet regularly alternating between Nollamara and my home
here in Bibra Lake. The next meeting is on Sunday 28th in Nollamara and
if you are free anytime between 1 and about 4 you might profit from coming
along because there are lots of resources and much expertise there.
I live in Australia and have traced my family tree to Thomas Catley,
who arrived in Australia as a convict, in 1838.
His age is recorded as 19 yrs.
Religion: Protestant.
Native place: Somersetshire.
He was single and was convicted of shoplifting.
I have no idea how I can trace his roots so any help
would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Anthony Catley
