 New Norfolk, Tasmania |
 New Norfolk, Tasmania |
Richard Mapley (born 1810) of Great Linford moved to Van Diemen's Land in 1845, with his wife Fanny and children Joseph, Joshua, Jane, Sarah, Fanny, Mary Anne, Hannah and Thomas joining him in 1849.
They initially settled in Hobart, before moving to New Norfolk/Lachlan up the Derwent River 20 miles from Hobart. New Norfolk, the 3d. planned settlement in Van Diemen's Land, had been established in the early 1810's, also known as "The Hills" because of its hills, valleys and gentle streams. The stream "Thames" was renamed "Lachlan" after Governor Macquarie. With the introduction of hop plants in 1846, the area rapidly flourished with oast houses and hops fields. Richard died there 2 years later in 1851, but his children populated the area to the extent that Mapley Road in Lachlan, 4km. south of New Norfolk, is named after the early families.
