Further to the Batts from Houghton, I am also looking for any info on any Batts from Barton Stacey. I havefound one George Batt was transported to Tasmania in 1838 for stealing sheep. He got a life sentence, he left a wife and family of 8 children. I believe after he served 14 years he got a ticket of leave and was a free man, and married and had another family in Tasmania. If anyone has any info on the English family I would like to hear from them
