<p>Hi William,</p>
<p>I have been very slack in not replying before now and you guys do such good work. The second William Douglass (Middlesex) ended up on the Central coast of New South Wales as a government employee in Newcastle. Didn't follow him any further</p>
<p>Cheers</p>

<p>hi Russell,</p>
<p>Thanks again. I have Wiliam's trail back as far as the York Assizes, where he was convicted to hang in 1802. However, for some reason, his sentence was commuted to life in Australia but can't find any reference to him, his partner in crime or his victim (John Gamble/Gambol) in any of my searches. Perhaps someday my DNA test will throw up a match, but to date, nothing even close.Cheers</p>
