Hi Trish

Thanks so much for taking the trouble to reply. May I ask what your interest is in the Wiltshire family?

 I am a descendant of Annie Wiltshire born in 1835, daughter of Abraham/Sussanah. She left Bath in the 1850s and by 1858 she gave birth to my great grandfather Joseph in Brighton where I was born.

It has always been a mystery why she left Bath and how and with whom she went to Brighton. I know that Annie was in petty trouble with the law in Bath in 1850 and her brother Abraham got deprted to Australia in 1845 - may be she wanted a fresh start?

Do you know anything about the Wiltshires at this time


With kind regards - Ron

Dear Rainybell it was really good to receive your message yesterday and will help in any way I can and yes I would like to receive information about the Wiltshire family in Australia. By the way I particular information about Abraham's transportation to Tasmania but I guess you have that already? For example the offences he committed in Somerset, his associates, where his trial was held and details of the Marion - the convict ship? Let me know if you need any of this and I will pass it on. I can provide quite a bit of information about the Ann/e/ie side of the family if you would like me to pass it to you. Also I know a little about Abraham senior and basic information about his parents and some speculation going further back. Great to hear from you - Ron. PS I agree that all the Wiltshire's should have been transported!

I am a direct descendant (great, great grandson) of Anne Wiltshire who was born in 1835 and whose father was Abraham Wiltshire and mother Susanna. So she was the brother of Abraham who went to Australia. Anne died in Brighton in 1913. She was the unmarried mother of Joseph Wiltshire (born 1859, died 1926) and also Anne Wiltshire who lived only for a few months in 1861. She married James Mockford in 1861. It seems that Anne moved to Brighton from Bath in the late 1850's. I am still trying to find out more about Anne especially why she moved to Brighton, where she was born and more information about her early family living conditions. She was clearly in trouble with the law like the rest of the family. I would like to know more about what happened to the Australia Abraham!
