Abraham Appleyard was 19 years old on arrival in WA - he was transported for 'Stealing Boots'. Abraham was single, 5'5" tall, brown hair, grey eyes, fresh complexion, stout, pockmarked, cut on upper lip. 5/12/1857: TOL 1866: WA BDM Abraham Appleyard, aged 35 reg. no. 3281. From Wikitree.com: 1868: Abraham died at Doubtful Island Bay, WA. This is from: www.albanygateway.com.au John McKenzie was whaling at Doubtful Island Bay, Cape Riche and Cape Arid and the Sherratt brothers were out around Rabbit Island and in King George Sound. One season John McKenzie had a bad mishap at Doubtful Island Bay and had two men, Abraham Appleyard and John Rason were killed by a small whale. McKenzie was knocked overboard, but scrambled back into the boat. Both Appleyard and Rason were buried on Doubtful Island Bay. That was in 1868. In those days Captain Fisher was McKenzie's chief headsman.
