Notes |
- Thomas was born 15 December 1802 to Sarah Pearce and baptised at St Philip's Sydney on 18 April 1803. The baptism entry recorded his father as Thomas Reynolds, however this man appears to have been a convict who arrived in 1802 aboard the Atlas only two months before the child was born. As Thomas Reynolds could not have conceived the child it appears likely that an unknown man conceived the child and that Sarah Pearce was living with Thomas Reynolds at the time of his birth or baptism. Sarah appears to have had little if anything to do with Thomas Reynolds from 1804 onwards (Thomas Atlas Reynolds lived with Mary Nuttle from around 1805 onwards and named a son born in 1811 Thomas). Evidence will show that Sarah's son Thomas (born 1802) was Thomas BC Douglas.
