Hi Christine, Hope it ok that I edited some more information into this profile. I think this Thomas is a brother to my g-g grandfather, John Thomas Harris: (https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Harris-37483). Their siblings were all baptised at Portsea. Its looking very much like the same family. Still I think more research on all the siblings should make it clearer... regards Kathy
