January 1839 discharged Swan River Colony on 31st
December 1844(AJCP reel 1074 piece 266 WO 28) Major
F.C. Irwin was Commandant of West Australian troops. I
understand a Detachment of 51st embarked at Hobart Town
"VDL" (TASMANIA) and arrived at King George's
Sound (ALBANY) in Swan River Colony per "RUNNYMEDE"
on 25th June 1840.

G.E.Warburton,Asst Surgeon Thos.Bartlett,six(6)
Sergeants,124 Rank and File,24 women and 24 children were
aboard. HORN was
stationed at stationed at KGS. on Garrison Duty according
to Musters (ref WO 12 reel 3809 - 3815) his place of
birth noted on Muster Roll (reel 3814/6207) appears to be
Wellingborough, Northampton and occupation is Shoemaker. HORNE
is transcribed as HORN however there are also other HORNS
and HORNES mentioned in "The British Army in
Australia" by James H.Donohoe in 48th,40/1,12th,46th,96th,3rd,21st,17th
& 58th Regiments which may be connected. I
seek info.of enlistment of Charles HORN ie N.O.K etc as I
am unable to find him on IGI.I suspect he was born about
1818. He settled in Western Australia and
married in 1845 died circa 1869.His age recorded on
marriage certificate is 27.
Horn later joined
Police Force 1855 - 1858 as a Mounted Constable in
Beverley,Western Australia.
- Note: Sarah Horne married 6
December 1870 John TOMLINE in Beverley Western Australia. John
Tomline died 9 April 1907 York Western Australia. You
are obviously aware of Muster & Pay Lists on
AJCP for 51 st Regiment.
