Also I come from his daughter, Mary Rosevear/s (1831 TAS -1887 TAS)who married George Rivers Vincent (b.1823 on ship 'Elizabeth' to Tas - d.1881 Tas) (son of John Vincent who emigrated (free)with wife Susannah (nee Rivers) and children in 1823 on'Elizabeth' to Hobart)from town of St Dominick in Cornwall.
