That's the first time I've heard anyone mention Tench's name since I was in third grade ! Seriously !
(and that was about 1973 :eek: )
The party he was leading came across the river near today's Penrith and Emu Plains (IIRC he named it after (Lord ?) Nepean) and he described it
"...as wide as the Thames at Putney"
Can't recall much else. :D
Tench Reserve at Penrith is named after him. Can't recall their actual crossing point.
