John Mincher transported to America
« on: Friday 26 September 08 08:30 BST (UK) »
I have been looking for this poor John Mincher who -
Ref. Bonded passengers to America -P.W. Coldham
'JOHN MINCHER –
Sentenced to be transported to the American colonies for 7 years for stealing malt at DUDLEY.
Summer 1764'.
I have written this note -
'NB Dudley does not have these records. – possibly Dudley was in the Oxford Circuit'
Can anyone advise where and how I can find details of the court case of John Mincher?
 Many thanks

Hiya Crooked Spire

You could try contacting Dudley Archives and Local History Service http://www.24hourmuseum.org.uk/museum_gfx_en/AM22662.html

They might be able to point you in the right place

I have a note written on my John Mincher page that Dudley does not have these records. However i think I might try again to see if they can make any suggestions about where else I can try.
Thanks for your help.
