Family History, Simmons Chart 0502 James Gisby Simmons and Charlotte Amey

1841 Census - Hereson, Ramsgate, Kent
I had information that James was transported to Australia but I do not think this was the case. It appears he came with his parents and was a Policeman for sometime so I would not think he was a convict. The James SIMMONS we had was convicted in Chatham, which is actually some distance from Ramsgate, so I think this was another James SIMMONS

(Australian Electoral Roll) There were various other SIMMONS on this Electoral Roll - a John Gisby jun a Farmer, a John Arney (I think this should be AMEY) a Labourer born Gelliondale, then there is a Margaret SIMMONS Alberton home duties. There are two others who I do not think are related.
On 31st January 2011 I received the following information from a Mary SIMMONS:
I wanted to add a bit of information on his brother James Gisby Simmons. I think that he was transported to Van Diemens land 30/2/51. I think that he was involved in tin mining in Victoria possibly marrying the owners daughter and later became a farmer. I think that he died 15/10/1918 having had children. He lived in Gelliondale and had at least 2 sons one of whom was called George Web Simmons. I think he was buried at Foster cemetery in Victoria. I cannot remember where I found the info on his father Joseph but I think that he may have gone out to Australia after the death of his wife Elizabeth (nee Gisby) and died there.

From Amey History by John Thomas Doran
By 1914 James Gisby Simmmons had sold his proertyto live a private life intending to live with his children, spending a few weeks with William in Waga, Alice in Junee and Charlotte in Foster.
His wife suggested that they should move to New South Wales. James replied "You can go wwhen your're ready. I'm staying here until I die I'm going to be buried in Foster, beside my Mother-in-Law, Ellen Amey". His wish was respected. Charlotte went to NSW but made frequent trips back to Foster and was there when James died, but returned to NSW where she died in 1920.
Her remins were brough back Foster, where she was buried with James beside Ellen Amey.
During the years he spent in out home he never tired of relating his experiences of his early life at sea and as a policeman
