Arrived in Tasmania onboard the "Thomas" on 10 August 1833 with his wife Mary Simpson and sons George and Alexander. I believe they settled in Hobart, as son Alexander was apprenticed to the boatbuilder John Watson in 1845. The only death notice I can find of Alexander (Senior) was through TAMIOT. There is a headstone in the Ross Military Cemetery, Ross, with the following details:
Alexander Smith, Died 31 May 1847, aged 41 years. Native of Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
To be buried in a military cemetery, would that mean he would have had to have been a military man?
