RESOLVED

Hi Leanne, well done.....you initially had me confused how this happened.
I'll add the Hearne children from what I discovered were all put into an orphanage when she married Matthews ...I guess he couldn't afford to raise another mans children ?
In a strange way I was sorter relieved when I found out that all lived & had families :)
Regards

John

Although Leanne,....something niggling me here...Yass was only discovered during the Hume Expedition in 1821 & never really became a place until 1830's ?
So Not sure how he was born in Yass in 1820 ?

The NSW Record has no birth location beyond NSW
The Yass came from the website - see link above.

Hmmm.... ?!..... well clearly wrong....
I thought strange as I have other relatives that were squatters at Bowning near Yass... "Beyond the Colony limits" in 1840. I thought 1820 wow that's early ?.....

To clarify
* Geni says born NSW, Australia - which matches to the NSW Birth Record

* This website https://gw.geneanet.org/gbarnier2?lang=en&n=hearne&nz=barni... says born Yass, NSW, Australia
I personally have nothing to do with managing this website or putting any data on it. You would need to ask them where they are getting their information from.
