Something odd about cousin Vincent's history. He is, almost certainly, the Vincent Whysall born at Pentrich, Derbyshire, about 1757. He married Martha Fritchley, 12 April 1788 at South Wingfield, Derby. He is fined £5 for poaching, 1788. His second offence, 1791, is what gets him his ticket to NSW. He is, it seems, booked on HMS Pitt; but then disappears. Except a Vincent Whysall dies, back in Derbyshire, in the the quarter ending June 1839 [Basford District; volume 15; page 302]. Not a common name; and not a properly explained history.
