 Thomas Bertram M-P records that Thomas had four other children before his liaison with Mary Ann Thompson. He gives no information about the children's mother/s, just that one line of descent was 'John and Annie Murray-Prior and their children Bertram and Coralie, of New South Wales.' and that he had 'No space for more details.' ((Thomas Bertram M-P, Some Australasian Families Descended from Royalty, ms, n.d., p.24, NLA.)) Certainly space would be needed to summarise the career of John: a colourful one to say the least! click on [[John Murray Prior/Bertram Murray]] for more.\\ Thomas Bertram M-P records that Thomas had four other children before his liaison with Mary Ann Thompson.

-In 2024, a letter written by Alason Tatum (nee Prior) in 1993 reached my brother and I. Alason thought it possible she was related to the M-Ps, and thought her great-great grandfather Daniel Prior(1809-51) of Queen's County, was the son of William Prior and Fanny Mary Fitzpatrick. Whether there was any connection to Thomas and one of his liaisons is unknown. \\
