  • Note 1 (shared):

  • A farmer and banker, of West Tarring, Sussex, Thomas Henty decided to sell his Sussex property in 1828 and move the entire stock to Australia, where he was already known for his Spanish merino sheep-breeding. In 1829 the vanguard of the family, with stock and labourers, sailed for Swan River in the chartered ship "Caroline", in charge of the eldest son James, the family subsequently moving to Launceston in Van Dieman's Land (now Tasmania).

    From the first, Thomas Henty identified himself with Launceston life, where he was also a magistrate, helping to found the Cornwall Agricultural Society and to improve the standard of the town's racing, in which soon most events were won by progeny of his importations from the Earl of Egremont's stud. He died in Launceston on 25 October 1839.

    Of a generous and lively mind and a temperament that his son James considered incorrigibly optimistic; with a pride in his reputation in both England and Van Diemen's Land as a breeder of blood-horses and fine-woolled sheep and with as great a pride in the achievements of his sons; and with the support of a practical, intelligent and affectionate wife, Thomas, despite what he called 'the buffettings' he had undergone, seems to have been a happy man until near his end.
