Herbert Sant was the son of Isaac Sant and the grandson of Abel Sant and Ellen Smith. His grandfather was brought from England to Australia on a convict ship for the crime of having a file in his lunchbox. Such were the questionable crimes that allowed England to have labor for the new colony. Herbert’s grandfather was forced to leave behind a wife and twelve children whom he would never see again. In 1852, Herbert’s grandparents married in Australia and had one known son, Isaac.
