Gloucestershire / Re: Can you help me find Convict ancestor?
« on: Monday 09 February 09 23:08 GMT (UK) »
Hi my name is Lisa,
i think i have some information about James Flower from Bedminster who was transported on the Bangalore in 1847, he was tryed along with his partner in crime Edward Milkins but am sorry to say it was not for the crime of sheep stealing they where both given 7 years for there crimes. my conection to the Flower family is through James sister caroline who married James Parsons my relative. In 1881 Caroline Flower senior was in prison in Milton Keynes and Johnathan was in prison in Portland Dorset in 1861.
I hope this has helped
