It’s Exotic Enough That Errol is from Tasmania, but Making His History Even More Fascinating are His Unique Genealogical Connections and Family History. Recently Explored was Errol’s Possible Relationship to One of History’s Most Famous Explorers, Roald Amundsen, a Supposed “Cousin” of Errol’s Step-Grandfather Andrew Hammer. Further Research Indicates What is Perhaps an Even More Unusual Connection – to Toofaiti, of Huahini & Pitcairn Islands – Who May Have Been Errol’s Maternal 4th Great Grandmother. Toofaiti, was Born on Huahine (“The Rebel Island”), one of the Leeward Society Islands, Midway Between Tahiti and Bora Bora. She Ultimately Married Edward Young, Who Himself was Exotically Born in 1762 on St. Kitts Island in the West Indies. “Ned” Young was One of the HMS Bounty Sailors Who Sided with Fletcher Christian Against Captain Bligh. Ned & Toofaiti’s Son, George, was Born on Pitcairn in 1797, Making Him (If All This is True) Errol’s Maternal 3rd Great Grandfather – Lily Mary Flynn’s Great Grandfather.
As They Say in Huahini, Mauru-Uru!
Here’s the Beautiful Birthplace of Toofaiti:
