Thomas Gregson
Thomas George Gregson (1798 – 4 January 1874) was the second Premier of Tasmania, serving from 26 February 1857 until 25 April 1857.
==Early life==
Gregson was born in Durham, England, the son of John Gregson, squire, of Lowlynn. Thomas Gregson was educated in Edinburgh and migrated to Van Diemen's Land, (later renamed Tasmania) in 1821 with his wife as a result of family differences. He brought over £3000 with him and was given a grant of 2500 acres (10 km²). Subsequently he received an additional 1000 acres (4 km²). Gregson was made a magistrate and in 1825 was assisting Andrew Bent in his conflict with Governor Arthur for the liberty of the press.
Comment
The Australian Dictionary of Biography gives the birth of Thomas George Gregson as Durham in 1798 their reference being the book written by F C Green as cited below under References. Yet according to the Northumbrian Records Office at Woodhorn, Thomas's baptism is cited in the Kyloe Baptism Register (Kyloe Parish Church) and took place on the 7 February 1796. There it states that he was the son of John and Elizabeth Gregson of Buckton a village near Low Lynn. John Gregson was a kinsman of Anthony Gregson (1720-1806) the owner of the estate named Low Lynn. Anthony's son another Anthony, a bachelor, inherited Low Lynn and entailed it on Henry son of the Rev Thomas Knight of Ford, upon his death. John Gregson was not the squire of Low Lynn.
