Painter family in Australia - Thomas 181

My great great grandfather was William Painter, believed to come to Australia on the ship The Moffat in 1839 - possibly from Sussex - and settled in Adelaide. I am just starting to research my family tree and so I have relatively little information about it. To the best of my knowledge he lived from thereon in South Australia. My great grandfather was Charles Painter (wife Annie, my grandfather, John Edward Painter (killed in WWI) and my father was Rowland George Painter. I have a brother, Julian Painter, living in Bunbury Western Australia, a sister, Linda Rodgers, living in Rockhampton, Queensland and then there is me, living in Adelaide. I hope this is of help in your future investigations.
