BiographyThomas was the son of William and Sarah Alcorn (nee Keys) born Mt. Pleasant, Dapto.

Thomas married Florence Agnes King in February 1902 when he was 40 years old.

It appears Thomas lived with his parents at Shellharbour before moving to a farm in Casino. The farm in Shellharbour was at 'Clear Hills', near Killalea State Park today, near the Minnamurra Rover.

In 1899, his name is on a petition list to the Government, and he is listed as living at Dunmore. In the 1901 Census he is living at Long Point (Bass Point).

In 1902 he married Florence Agnes King. Thomas and family moved to lease a farm at Wooroowoolgen.

Thomas died at Casino Hospital in 1906 and his obituary states that he was a cousin of A.C. Alcorn, who was the eldest son of Robert and Margaret Alcorn, yet there is no mention of the relationship prior to this.Source:
