I am also descendant from Joseph Eyles the convict on my paternal grandmother's line through his son Joseph. Joseph's daugher Josephine Harriet Eyles (1851-1928) would be my great great grandmother. I only sporadically have time to spend time researching, and like many others I have undertaken some initial research in bits and pieces over many years, then relied initialy on other trees on this site as a way of cross checking the direction of my tree before starting to authenticate the connections for which I do not have evidence. I will post any photos or other documentation in my tree as I am able to authenticate each person. Now that I am aware of this message board I will keep in touch
regards
Jane Kelly
