This orphan has been claimed by: Dr Helen Coan

Thomas did not travel with his mother on the ship Harmony.He was born in Tasmania. His father will not be William Disney. There seems to be no trace of him after 1835 whereas his three half brothers Charles, Jospeph and William all married and had families. I'm keen to try and trace a male Disney descendant of this family to join the yDNA project. Helen Coan (nee Disney)
