Dane,
I think this the Richard Wright who lives in Sydney. We
didn't get British settlement until 1788, and I suspect
Richard's coffins are mid 19th century. Richard, could you
give us some more info?
In response to another message - we can't get access to most
theses etc in the USA here without going to a hell of a lot
of trouble.
