bullet  Marriage Notes:

It is beleived that Thomas may be the son of Lord Robert Harley and his wife's sister from a now lost diary (possibly Elizabeth's Harley's). There is also a Thomas Harley on the willof Lord Robert. However, there is no more solid proof that this is the correct Thomas or that Elizabeth was correct.

There are other people in this site, for various reasons, some not related at all. Some are married into my family, some I once thought were related and, turns out, they are not.

On the Aborigines: Unfortunately, I can only place global statements not he web pages. The aborigines I am aware of are in the Blackman Line and are from the children of James Blackman and Elizabeth Harley.
