Intimate Jottings
NEWS of Australian colony in London pops into my letter-box via Lancastrian only three days after being written - so different from the old sea mail days when we kept track of our friends in the past tense instead of in the present.
Hear the Percy Spenders, who arrive in Orion, say they haven't yet been worried by rationing. This tent surprising as, preparatory to taking off for Holland, Belgium, Spain, and possibly Greece, they stay at Grosvenor house, Park Lane which still manages to produce a pretty good meal.
While Percy visits Germany, Jean Spender plans to stay in Paris. On June 25 they sail for America in Good Queen Liz, returning to Sydney by air in August.
. . .
FOOD parcels from home raided to provide supper titbits for gathering of Australians at Joan Lyttle's Kensington flat. The social season for Australians in England is not any particular time, like August in Scotland-it's every time a batch of food parcels arrives. Then there is a great pooling of resources.
GUESTS at Joan's party include Ruth Sanger, of Armidale (suntanned from a recent Switzerland jaunt), who is studying pathology at Lister Institute; Dr. Marie Hill, of Pennant Hills, who has just begun duty as assistant anaesthetist at Luton and Dunstable Hospital; Peter Walcott, of Lindfield, and Jim Lawson, R.A.A.F., of Melbourne.
Peter Walcott is returning in the Asturias after studying legal procedure at the Houses of Parliament for the past year. Peter and Jim, who've been sharing a flat in London, write that it's amazing what can be run up from a tin of Australian cheese and some toast for a snack.

Jim Lawson
Wing Commander James Franklin Lawson, O.B.E. (1913- 2003) was born at Warracknabeal in Victoria on February 8, 1913.
His father was commissioned in the Army in 1912, and fought in World War I in the 4th Light Horse Regiment of the A.I.F. Major Lawson led the famous cavalry charge at Beersheba in October 1918, was mentioned in despatches and awarded the D.S.O., although he was in fact recommended for the Victoria Cross.
Jim went to Ballarat Grammar School, where he did very well and was primed to metricmatriculatetudy law at university. However, the onset of the Great Depression made it necessary for him to abandon that plan and leave school early.
Instead, with characteristic determination he studied accountancy by correspondence and, not surprisingly, came top of the state. Jim then worked as an accountant for various local councils in country Victoria, and for the City of Hawthorn in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne.
In 1935, the Royal Australian Air Force advertised for officer recruits. Jim was one of only five successful applicants, something that must have made his mother and father very proud. He rose rapidly in the R.A.A.F., in due course attaining the rank of Group Captain.
During World War II, Jim was involved in the Empire Air Training Scheme, which made such a crucial contribution to allied victory, and in 1943 served on the staff of the R.A.A.F. Allied Air Liaison Office in Ottawa, where he played tennis with Princess Juliana of the Netherlands, among other distinguished V.I.P.s temporarily sheltering at Rideau Hall.
The journey by ship to Canada was dangerous, and the risk of encountering enemy ships and submarines in the Pacific Ocean was high. In June 1944, with the rank of Wing Commander (N.W. area H.Q.), he was made an officer in the military division of the Order of the British Empire.
In November 1958, Jim left the Department of Air and the R.A.A.F., and joined Hawker Siddeley, the large British firm of aeronautical engineers and defence contractors. He worked for Hawker in Australia, and in England.
Earlier in the same year, Jim met John Borthwick in Melbourne. In about 1963, Jim and John travelled extensively in England, Ireland, France, and Greece.
Settling in England in the 1960s and 1970s, towards the end of which time John was working for the Wend End antique dealer Roy Barling, Jim and John lived variously in a sixteenth-century thatched cottage at Welford-on-Avon, at a partly restored fortified castle in Hunsdon, a flat in Porchester Place, Mayfair, a cottage near Cirencester in the Cotswolds, and, later on, above another antique business (called Grace and Favour) which John ran for Lady Joseph in Bute Street, South Kensington. At times, Jim assisted Barling with his considerable accounting skills.
In the 1980s, when semi-retired, they spent the northern winter months in Cannes, in the south of France, where after several years Jim's appalling French showed no signs of improvement.
They returned to Australia in 1969, purchased and ran a motel and restaurant in Coffs harbor, aiming to bring French Provencal cookery to the northern coast of New South Wales.
When in England or France, Jim and John entertained many visiting Australians with supreme generosity, including many members of both their families. We remember those visits, which were frequently hilarious, with immense gratitude.
John's nephew, my brother Simon, recalls Jim enthusiastically suggesting to him and Mary Ann, on the occasion of their first visit to London in 1984, that they attend a soccer friendly between Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool at White Hart Lane. John was somewhat less enthusiastic.
In any event, during the game a riot took place, and Simon and Mary Ann barely escaped with their lives. Jim was unapologetic, observing cheerfully that this would for them be an unforgettable experience of daily life in the capital.
Jim was naturally gregarious and, at other times, to the mortification of young or merely shy companions, he did not hesitate to strike up conversations with complete strangers at the next table, wave his handkerchief to people in the theater, stop London traffic by holding out his walking stick, and sing songs.
Jim and John finally returned to Australia in 1988, and lived for some years in Sydney and Melbourne.
In 1996, Jim entered the War Veterans' Home at Myrtle Bank (in Adelaide) as a patient and, though frail, remained mentally alert. No-one who knew them in happier times can easily forget the great care and devotion with which John looked after Jim in those last years, and with which Jim's niece, Ann Pietsch, looked after both of them in Adelaide.
Jim Lawson died peacefully on Saturday morning, March 29, 2003. John died in Melbourne three years later.

Notes
General:
Convict shipping indent NSW 1834 Ship Blenheim - Archives Office of NSW x 636 Reel 907 P. 145 and 146 printed indent - Blenheim I (1) per Trissia Waddingham Dip F.H.S. Genealogical Consultant Earlwood NSW.
Info from shipping indent of male convicts on the Ship Blenheim, James Temple Brown, Master, James Wilson, Surgeon Superintendent, arrived from Ireland 14th November, 1834. Convict No. 34-2314 ident no 83 Daniel Leary aged 32, able to read and write, Roman Catholic, married with 1 son 1 daughter born Cork, trade/calling Waterman-offence, stealing money-tried at City Cork on 16 August 1833, sentenced to seven years with no prior convictions. Height 5' 4 1/2 ", sallow complexion brown hair and bluish eyes. Particular marks and scars as follows:- scar front of head, St. Patrick, Red & Serpent on Upper, (tattoos) 7 stars, half moon, sun, crucifix, 'INRIDOL' and two human figures in a kneeling posture inside lower right arm, man, woman, in r an arch, 'LOVERS' on upper, mermaid, two hearts pierced with two darts , and two wreaths inside lower left arm.
Marilyn Handley (her husband is a descendant of Daniel and Mary's daughter Ellen, who married William Remington) of NSW supplied further information on Daniel to me in 2009.
Daniel was married to Mary Sullivan (possibly the sister of John Sullivan). Daniel petitioned the Colonial Secretary for his wife Mary and 2 children to join him in the colony. Mary was granted free passage to NSW per the Isabella in 1840.
https://members.pcug.org.au/~ppmay/cgi-bin/irish/irish.cgi?requestType=Search2&id=16735
In 1837 General Returns of convicts notes that Daniel was assigned to Alexander Berry, Illawarra District.
In 1838 Daniel and others made application to have their wives join them in NSW State Records Reel 1051 4/3686 page 76. 1 Nov 1838 reel 699 page 22 Colonial Secretary's office Sydney. Application to have wife join him in Sydney.
31 December 1839 Mary Sullivan granted free passage to NSW Feb 1840 - Return of Free Settlers embarked on the Isabella for NSW. Wife's name Mary Sullivan. 'Ireland-Australia transportation database'. According to 'list of convicts who have applied for their wives to be sent to NSW at the expense of the Government recommended as worthy of that indulgence by His Excellency Sir George Gipps", Mary Sullivan resided in Cork City, St Annes Fair Lane.
30 April 1840 Daniel received Ticket of Leave (copy supplied)
July 1840-Mary Sullivan arrived free on the Isabella. unfortunately the Isabella indent only listed the convicts on board and therefore no children were named.
August 1840-Daniel's Ticket of Leave was cancelled due to his drunkenness.
A death in Gundagai, NSW, in 1876 has been found, but it is uncertain if this is the correct Daniel Leary as it has nil family details though the age is close to correct. The death certificate shows that Daniel Leary died of exposure and debility ( 6 weeks).

Notes
General:
Julia, her husband John Sullivan and her brother Daniel Leary were all transported to Australia as convicts.
From List of female Convicts by the ship ROSLIN CASTLE (4), William Richards, master, John Edwards Surgeon Superintendent , arrived from Ireland 25 February 1836. Standing no. of convict 164-36 ident no 52, Julia Sullivan aged 25, could not read or write, Roman Catholic, married with 1 son and 1 daughter, youngest 13 months old on board, born Cork, Housemaid and Laundry maid-offence, Stealing cotton from a shop, tried at Cork City on 19th February 1835, sentenced to 7 years with no prior convictions. Julia was 4' 11 1/2' tall with sallow complexion, brown hair and blue eyes. Particular marks or scars as follows:-scar right side of upper lip, scar on forehead (tattoos). JC upper left arm, several blue dots back of left hand, blue ring middle finger of same, six dots back of right hand, blue ring fore and middle fingers of same. Brother Daniel Leary, two years ago. Julia was assigned to Sophia Darcey in Sydney.
According to Julia's death certificate, Julia and John had been in Victoria for 14 years and in NSW for 13 years. This makes their arrival in Victoria around 1858 and according to these dates arrival in NSW would have been around 1845. As there is a birth of Daniel in NSW in 1841 with parents John and Julia Sullivan, the dates on the death certificate would seem to be somewhat underestimated.
