Lesley, What was her name and what ship did she arrive on?
Henry is my 2xggrandmother's brother. She too was sent out as a convict in 1838 to Australia. I wonder how many other siblings of theirs were sent out to Australia as they had many. Lesley

Henry comissioned a love token (from a 2 Penny coin), dedicated to his mother. When this you see Think on me when i am Transported beyond the Seas
I have the Love Token made by/for Henry to his mother (Elizabeth, on a defaced 2 penny coin. I have tracked most of his history in Tasmania, his British trial details and would like to search his British history (he was born in the London suburb of Finsbury) with the idea of returning the token to any possible family line. (He did not have any male heirs from the 3 Tasmanian Marriages). I am not related.
If this is the H Arbery who made Ginger beer and cordials at 73 Brisbane St from 1860, then he died around 1877 after his nephew George Edwin Kelly joined the business in 1867. See information in the cyclopedia of Tasmania 1900 on George Kelly of Kelly and Co drinks company.
Also known as Henry Arbery. Cordial/Ginger Beer Maker. Married to Catherine Grant, Mary Snape and Mary Anne Allum. Died Brisbane Street, Hobart.
