Hi Judith,
 Thank you for your reply. There is a newspaper article, SMH May 1883 of George Schwenn aged 8 or 10 being sent to the "The Vernon". I also have a photograph of him aged about 12 years , in uniform on the Vernon.
Regards

Australia / Susannah Rise Schwenn nee Allen
« on: Monday 09 September 24 16:43 BST (UK)  »
Hi, I haven’t used Rootschat for a while.
I’m trying to find out if Susannah Rose Schwenn nee Allen was ever admitted to a mental institution in Sydney perhaps between 1885 and 1911. When her son George Edward Schwenn/Swain was sent to the industrial training ship the “Vernon” in 1883 she was described as being a drunkard. She had 10 children but lost 3 as babies and her husband Carl was bankrupt in 1889. Thank you.Mariea C

Family History Beginners Board / Convict Samuel Beaman
« on: Sunday 23 April 23 04:05 BST (UK)  »
Convict Samuel Beaman transported on ship Capt Cook 11 in 1833, assigned to Explorer Edward John Eyre. Did he accompany Eyre on expeditions? Was he one of six convict workers who Eyre gave £20 each to re-unite with their families? Samuel wrote in 1836, to request being re-united with his family. Was he ever re-united with his wife Mary nee Humphreys and family? He received his Certificate-of-Freedom in 1840. Don’t know what happened to him or his wife. Mariea C

Hello JM,


 Samuel Beaman convict on Captain Cook 2nd arrived NSW 1833 left a wife Mary Beaman nee Humphries and sons Samuel and Richard in Middlesex England. On arrival in 1833 he was assigned to John Eyre at Parramatta.  Yes there are several Samuel Beamans but I'm trying to find out what happened to Samuel convict after he received his Certificate of Freedom in 1840. ( Samuel Beaman (son) died in 1883 NSW) and a Mary Ann Beaman died 1854 and is buried in St Stephens Church cemetery in Newtown NSW.Any information as to when convict Samuel was re-united with his family would be appreciated.Mariea
