hi briony, lionel castles was my great uncle his brother ernest was my grandfather so we're related. all the information i have is from lionel items susan kenndey gave it to me, we have both been trying to find thomas and hannah castles, as i found out that there are no birth records back then only baptism/christening's they only started records for birth from 1837, on one of his son death certifcate george birth place said warcorn but there is no such think,he was born in walkern now i starting think maybe not who knows. and yes george was ship here in 1837 as a convict for house breaking in a dwelling. there were a lot of mistakes in lionel information had to recorrect most of it and still after what i found yesterday if you need information look at my tree it might help gald to here from you all the best in your search you will need it lol. regards cheryl
