Birth | Thomas ("BC") Douglas was born on 15 December 1802. |
Christening | He was christened on 18 April 1803 at St Philip’s in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.1 |
Other Life Events
Anecdote | Thomas was born 15 December 1802 to Sarah Pearce and baptised at St Philip’s Sydney on 18 April 1803. The baptism entry recorded his father as Thomas Reynolds, however this man appears to have been a convict who arrived in 1802 aboard the Atlas only two months before the child was born. As Thomas Reynolds could not have conceived the child it appears likely that an unknown man conceived the child and that Sarah Pearce was living with Thomas Reynolds at the time of his birth or baptism. Sarah appears to have had little if anything to do with Thomas Reynolds from 1804 onwards (Thomas Atlas Reynolds lived with Mary Nuttle from around 1805 onwards and named a son born in 1811 Thomas). Evidence will show that Sarah's son Thomas (born 1802) was Thomas BC Douglas. |

Birth | Elizabeth Douglas was born on 15 July 1804 in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. |
Other Life Events
Anecdote | Elizabeth was born on 15 July 1804 in Sydney. Her baptism records that she was the daughter of Reynold and Sarah Douglas however no such couple existed. Elizabeth appears to have been conceived while Sarah Pearce was living with Thomas Reynolds and born while Sarah was living with Thomas Douglas, hence the confusion with names. Elizabeth died on 17 September 1804 as a result of being eaten by a pig and was buried on 18 September 1804. The Sydney Gazette reported her death and in so doing confirms her connection with Sarah Pearce and also confirms the existence of the two older children as it notes that "the mother on returning home with the little creature in her arms, placed it on the bed that she might herself go in search of two other children".

From AustralianRoyalty.net.au:
William was tried at Assizes at Lincoln on 9 July 1785 "...for picking the pocket of John Brown of a silver watch, at Horncastle...". He was sentenced to be transported for seven years and arrived in the colony aboard the ship 'Alexander' at Sydney Cove 26 January 1788.
On 1 June 1788 William Douglas married Mary Groves. Mary died in 1796 (probably in child birth). The only daughter of this relationship is Elizabeth Douglas (1796-1877) who married Daniel Jurd 28th September 1812.
In 1822 William Douglas was recorded as living with Eleanor Carthorne who had arrived as a convict aboard the ship 'Canada' in 1810.

The mother of Brian Cox, son of Raymond Joseph Cox, was not Clarice Clegg. Brian's mother was Gloria Madge Gordon. Raymond petitioned for divorce from Clarice in 1944 (Trove) , but I'm not sure if it was granted and have not found a remarriage. I have, however ,met Brian and his mother. Clarice possibly had a daughter with Raymond, according to Ancestry.
