ANCESTRY
Dallas is a descendant of the Stott (paternal) and Martin (maternal) clans and Beth is a descendant of the Nolan (paternal) and Honey (maternal) clans. The Stott, Nolan, Martin and Honey families arrived in Van Diemans Land (now Tasmania) in sailing ships about 150 years ago. The Stotts came from Lancashire in Northern England and the Nolans came from County Wexford in Southern Ireland. The Martins and Honeys came from England. All were free settlers. Beth's ancestor families Kimberley, Stanfield and Harmsworth sailed out from England on the First Fleet of sailing ships to Australia in 1788 and so are known as First Fleeters. Stanfield and Harmsworth were free settlers and Kimberley served as a convict before being appointed a police constable.
The Stott surname is similar to present-day Scandanavian surnames and Stott ancestors have been traced back to the Vikings who invaded Scotland centuries ago. My paternal ancestors came from Lancashire near the border of Scotland and England. The scottish Stott clan were despised by the English gentry and fought the English alongside Sir William Wallace and Robert Bruce King of Scotland. Mel Gibson portrayed Wallace in "Braveheart" but in fact Braveheart was Robert Bruce. Sir William Wallace was hung, drawn and quartered by King Edward I (Longshanks) of England to deter the Scottish rebels.

WE LIVE IN TASMANIA
We live on the delightful and naturally beautiful island of Tasmania (pop 460,000) a state of Australia (18 million). We receive light snowfalls in winter and balmy days in summer. Our home is at Blackmans Bay, a sleepy little seaside retreat just south of the capital, Hobart. Segments of the ABC-TV series The Human Journey were filmed at Mt Wellington and Kingston Beach not far from here.
Other Tassie Towns we have lived in are Smithton (Beth), Middleton (Beth), Launceston (Dallas), George Town and Devonport, and we were lucky enough to spend a couple of years on Boyne Island off the Central Queensland Coast.
