Is there a bapt for Thomas Garratt?

or any other kids for Thomas and Sarah
and
Thomas and Hannah

Thanks there's some good stuff here.
I'm doing some rearch with a fellow Aussie of yours Di, into Benjamin Garratt who was transported to Tasmania.
Looks like he maybe this Thomas's son.

Forgot to ask, some have Inmate by their names, what does this mean?

It is an old fashioned term for somebody who rents a room at an inn or shares a house with others.

It has nothing to do with being a criminal.

'inmate' seems to usually be used interchangeably with 'lodger' or 'boarder'. Maybe it indicates a non-paying boarder as it often seems to be a relative.

Ooh, I'd be interested in hearing about that TWG. If so, Benjamin would be a 4C4R of mine.

I think you will find this is the convict Benjamin Garratt.
