Hi

I have found your topic very interesting as I have POW ancestors who emigrated to Australia. :D

I too have Nappy KING and William POW in my line through the marriage of Elizabeth POW to Thomas North CLARIDGE.  I have done considerable added research in the UK, twice visited the Taunton Record Office and viewed the ACTUAL court depositions and copied them, plus the petitions for leniency and visited and photographed Chew Magna which is the little village around which the THREE offences occurred that landed him in firstly, Norfolk Island and then VDL.  I have also purchased the book " A Drift of Derwent Ducks'  by Trudy Mae Cowley who has researched each of the Irish convicts from the vessel 'Australasia' and details all the information on both Nappy and Kitty KING and Izod Darcy KING, and I would recommend its purchase.  It is published by Research Tasmania 2005.  Have also been to Clifden on the west coast of Ireland in search of the 'left behind sister' Eliza.  This wasn't very fruitful as the Irish Records in Dublin were burned in the insurrection of 1922 and it left some questions unanswered, especially as the D'arcy family were the local 'bigwigs' in Clifden, and Nappy gave her child this as a second name.

I'm new to this chat room so am not sure how one proceeds to share information.

Hi Chrissy,

Thanks for your answer.  I am finding it frustrating negotiating into the chat room and whilst you posted your E-Mail address to me I can't find it listed and I keep being told there is an error or I have exceeded my message limit.

I telephoned and left a message for Phitzy in SA hoping to have a conversation with her.  My age is telling here and I still prefer some of the more conventional ways of communicating.

My E-Mail address is (*) (don't forget the second 'n').  I would like to correspond with you.  I have most of what you have posted - but also pages and pages of the interesting  'stuff' before William landed in Oz

Best wishes - Janitor!
