'''First run ins with the law''' In August [[1864-1873 Events|1865,]] when we lived near [[Beveridge|Beveridge]], I was acquitted of slaughtering a bull belonging to '''John Chisholm'''.

The family then moved to [[Greta|Greta]].

Did they try and get me on a trumpted up charge. Something to do with a hide ([[The North Eastern Ensign at KellyGang 7/1/1873|Ensign7/1/1873]])

In 1876 I was behind in the rent for my selection at Lurg.

Soon after I arrived in north eastern Victoria, Jack [[Jack Lloyd snr|Lloyd]] and I were convicted of horse stealing at [[Beechworth Court|Beechworth]] and sentenced to 3 years. see ([[Royal Commission report day 14 page 11|RC3239]])([[Royal Commission report Appendix 10|RCApp10]])

'''Escape north''' On about 4/11/1878 SConst [[SConst John Kelly|Kelly]] saw one of my daughters in Benalla ([[Royal Commission report day 22 page 3|RC7986]]) '''Mass arrest of the sympathizers''' On 2/1/1879 Commissioner [[Standish|Standish]] ordered the arrest of about 20 [[Sympathizers|sympathizers]] including myself and [[Jack Lloyd Jnr|Jack Lloyd Jnr]]. He took that action under section 5 of the [[Felons Apprehension Act|Felons Apprehension Act]]. Most of the sympathizers were held in Beechworth goal.

I was arrested near Benalla by ... ([[The Argus at KellyGang 4/1/1879 (2)|Argus4/1/79]]) ([[The Argus at KellyGang 6/1/1879|Argus6/1/79]])([[Daniel Clancey|OMA7/1/79]])

I managed to send a telegram home after I was arrested to warn the [[../../things/K_kellys/K__kellysIx.html|'''KellyGang''']] "Turn the four bullocks out of the paddock"

We were held without ever being given a chance to defend them selves. We were remanded in custody for periods of 7 days. Only one of the sympathizers was fully represented by a lawyer. The magistrates repeated the remands each week for over 3 months before the sympathizers were finally released. See ([[The Argus at KellyGang 3/2/1879|Argus3/2/79]]) ([[The Ovens and Murray Advertiser 11/2/1879|OMA11/2/1879]]) ([[The Ovens and Murray Advertiser 18/2/1879 (2)|OMA18/2/79]])

At the start, the arrests we had public support in Melbourne but that turned into general contempt for the police. The mass arrests resulted in fewer people being prepared to assist the police or to supply information about the '''KellyGang''' .

I was finally discharged. ([[The Argus at KellyGang 26/2/1879|Argus26/2/80]])

'''Later in 1879''' On [[events 1879-08/ 1879-10|28/9/1879]] I was cited [[Police Agents|Foote]], ([[Patrick Quinn|Pat Quinn]]) with the '''[[KellyGang|KellyGang]]''' between [[Oxley|Oxley]] and Wangaratta. We were on foot.([[Royal Commission second Report Part XII ( page 15)|RC2ndreportXII]]) '''What happened to Tom Lloyd's family''' My daughter '''Jane''' married Ken Brown who served as a Rat of Tobruk in WW11 and then went to university after the war and became a much admired teacher and then principal. Finally lectured at Toorak Teachers College

My daughter '''Catherine''' loved Ned Kelly. ([[Herald (7)|Herald29/6/1880]]) Later she married William Cleave. She bore him 7 children, Priscilla (b1896),Thomas (b1897), Catherine (b1899), Eileen (b1900), Eileen (b1901), Josephine (b1903), and Henry (b1907). Catherine died in 1934.

Did one of my sons shoot himself at Greta ([[The Argus at KellyGang 16/1/1880|Argus16/1/1880]])

My daughter '''Catherine''' was very keen on [[Ned Kelly|Ned Kelly]] and she followed him down to [[Benalla Police Station|Benalla]] after he had been captured by police. ([[Herald (7)|Herald29/6/1880]]) ([[Sydney Morning Herald (32)|SMH30/6/80]]) Glenrowan Siege
