[Transcriber’s Note: NAAIRS has a DN for Uriah TONKIN in 1843. No.63 Shortmarket-street seems a strange removal address for someone who is deceased! According to Desmond McAllister’s site Uriah TONKIN was born 11 Jan 1795 in Penzance, Cornwall, England. He died 24 Sep 1843 in Heerengracht, Cape Town.
