I have another son which with my husband, constitutes the whole of my family. The former is a youth of stout moral caracter (sic), a good scholar, and excellent disposition and should feel highly honoured by your allowing me to introduce him to your notice.

See http://sydney.edu.au/paradisec/australharmony/paul-tempest-currency-lasses.php for information on her musical publications, etc.Tempest Margaret Paul, the wife of the merchant John Paul, was the leading female amateur singer on several programs in the colony's inaugural subscription concert season, the Sydney Amateur Concerts, held from June 1826 to January 1827. As well as singing in duets and glees, she was also soprano soloist, accompanying herself on the piano, most notably in Arne's bravura The soldier tir'd, and in the first Australian public performances of that only relatively recent London hit, Home, sweet home. Her two sons also participated in the concerts, both as committee members and performers, John as a tenor (viola) player in the orchestra, and George as a vocalist in several comic songs. Kavanagh and Sippe, the band masters of the 3rd and 57th, were among several key professionals involved in the organisation of the series, providing members of their bands for orchestral and vocal items, and themselves appearing as soloists and - in one instance each - also as composers..
Tempest Margaret Hughes witnessed John Paul and Mary Esther Bowen's wedding on 6 October 1827 in St James, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
The Monitor on 24 Dec 1827 reported: AUCTIONEERING seems to be the best business going at present. We heard some time ago, of Mr. and Mrs. Paul going to Europe to enjoy some of the fruits of their industry. But from the great run of business Mr. P. has on his hands, we suppose that he cannot prevail upon himself to quit a shore for the present, on which he has acquired so handsome an independency, and in which fortune still continues to shower upon him its gifts. However Mr. Paul's new and elegant Auction Mart is likely to be well supported by his sons, whenever Mr. P. retires to England, whether it be to remain there to act as shipper for them, or to return in due time to spend the evening of life in the Colony. Mrs. Paul will be missed by her musical friends. We have always
regretted that this lady's musical science, vocal as well as instrumental, has been confined to so private a circle. Those who remember her performance at the Amateur Concerts, are still desirous to re-establish those innocent sources of public recreation..
The Sydney Gazette reported on 27 Feb 1828: Mr & Mrs Paul, whose return to Europe we ought some time since have mentioned, took home with them, in cash alone, £10,000.
     Tempest Margaret Hughes and John Paul were on the passenger list of the "Surry", arriving at Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, on 21 August 1831. They departed 12 Feb from England & Hobart Town as cabin passengers: Mr J Paul, England, settler, England, Mrs Paul ditto. It was a schooner of 340 tons, 20 men.
The Sydney gazette on Saturday July 9 1831 reported: We learn from Captain Ramsay of the Britannia, that at Launceston he saw a Hobart Town paper, which must have been of a later date than yet reached Sydney, in which the arrival of the Surrey was reported. She has merchandise and passengers for Sydney: among the latter are Mr and Mrs Paul, sen., and two Wesleyan missionaries, intended for the Parramatta and Windsor stations..
The Dictionary of Sydney states: Mrs John Paul, by Graeme Skinner, 2008
The existence of the woman who was quite possibly Sydney's first recorded composer is attested to in The Sydney Gazette for 1 March 1836. Reporting on a concert by the newly arrived Irish musical virtuoso William Vincent Wallace, the Gazette noted that Wallace concluded his program by inviting members of the audience to submit tunes, one of which he selected and added 'some extemporaneous variations' of his own. According to the Gazette, the item in question was the song 'Currency Lasses (as composed by our talented towns lady, Mrs John Paul senior).' [1]
One version of the words of the song, printed in 1832, includes the following chorus: [2]
The Currency Lads can fill up their glasses
And drink to the health of the Currency Lasses
The Lass I adore; the one for me
Is the lass of the Female Factory.
Whether these were the words of Mrs Paul's song is not known. Nor is there any known record of the tune ascribed to her, though some vestige of it may survive in the setting published by Isaac Nathan in London in 1846. Edward Geoghegan was also author and possibly composer of the musical play or operetta The Currency Lass, or My Native Girl (he himself later described it as an 'original 2 act opera'), first performed at the Royal Victoria Theatre, Sydney on 27 May 1844.
