1-William Bennett Thomas, son of William Llewdeth Thomas and Martha Jane Bennett, was born on 19 Dec 1875 in Lambton, New South Wales, Australia and died in a mining accident on 5 Oct 1912 at the Stanford-Merthyr Colliery in Kurri Kurri, New South Wales, Australia at age 36. According to the coroner's report he died from internal hemorrhaging due to broken ribs penetrating his lungs.

William married his sister Margaret's step-daughter, Matilda Frances Hatch, daughter of Charles Henry Hatch and Mary Ann Willmott in 1905 in Ashfield, New South Wales, Australia. Matilda was born on 15 Dec 1887 in Glen Innes, New South Wales, Australia.

There are no records under Matilda Thomas so it is likely she remarried after William's death and changed her last name.
