This book brings together the genealogical work of many of the descendants of Thomas Dunn, an Irishman, who as a 20 year old in 1799, was convicted and transported to Australia on the 'Hillsborough' for stealing. Some time between 1811 and 1814 Thomas became a free man, and set about creating a new life for himself in Sydney.
Thomas married Rose Bean and had a family of eight children. This is a compilation of all 'known' descendants of Thomas and his wife Rose. Each of thir children married and had families of their own, so this book lists thousands of Thomas and Rose's descendants.
