Title: Alexander Cameron
Post by: mmeng on Sunday 05 May 13 02:56 BST (UK)

Looking for ancestors of Alexander Cameron that was sentenced in July 1819 at Glasgow, but born, bred and worked in Paisley and shipped out to Australia on Asia I.

A previous topic, lest we cover old ground:

Does the court documents make it quite clear that the convict Alexander  was 'bred' and worked in Paisley, as well as being born there? Glasgow is close to Paisley and a move from one place to the other was common.

Cheers

Hi,  Yes the court document states that he was born, bred and resided in Paisley.
