The Common Room / Re: Bermuda Prison Hulks
« on: Saturday 02 January 21 01:18 GMT (UK)  »
thanks for this my ancestor travelled on the Tenedos to bermuda and then was sent to Australia despite being promised they would return to Britain.  He spent time in hospital suffering from yellow fever. There are some interesting articles in Trove about the arrival of the Bangalore carrying the bermuda men.

Marquessate  Thank you for answering my query so much usually if it says cut to self the husband has died or run away.  Obviously not in this case.  I am a researcher trying to find what happened to the convict women who came to Tasmania  would you be able to list the children

Does anyone know what happened to her. It seems her marriage ended as she was cut to herself in 1853

Ireland / Re: MCNALLY Catharine Christiana - Help please anyone!!

realise this is an old thread but just found it as I'm interested in convicts who came from Norfolk Island.  Have you considered Winifred Mcnally arrived 1817 (correct time ) Winifred would have been born 1885.  Can find no record of winifred anywhere after her arrival and ticket of leave Did she reinvent herself as Catherine Christiana not uncommon as they tried to hide their roots
