Richard and Elizabeth were married in 1810 therefore Elizabeth was probably pardoned shortly before this. I have read in Gwenda Bowman's book that Elizabeth was assigned to Richard so I suspect he became a free man much earlier.

Oh cool, thanks.

I have Gwendas book on order with library, so hopefully it gets sent to Tauranga soon on library exchange LOL.

Hi Marcus the following was mistakenly placed on my Palmer journal.

Hi Marscus, I have read the notes with interest. Edwin Palmer and Patahi TeHihutu were my forebears. I am travelling to Tasmania in January and I wondered if you knew of any relatives in that area. I think that Edwin was with his Uncle in Hobart when he sailed for the seals and whales in NZ.as a 17year old.
Waiting with interest for your response.
