Charlotte Jane Thorpe was a convict transported in the Mistrel arriving in 1812. John Oxley NSW Surveyor General, Explorer etc was on the ship and 9 months after arrival gave birth to a Child by John Oxley [[Thorpe-Oxley-1]] Jeanette and then in Jan 1813 a second child Francis. I have a recent 4th Cousin DNA match with a Canadian Thorpe who came from Nottinghamshire in 1963 with his mother Rose Ivy Thorp nee Hall. I have traced the marriage to 1942 at Basford. Any help in digging into this story would be appreciated. Read more in Charlottes profile [[Thorpe-1164]]
