Benjamin BULMER, arrived on 'Lord Melville', voyage date 29 May 1830, tried at York, 20 March 1830, sentence 14 years listed  as no 251 NSW New South Wales Convict Pardons , 1834-1838.  Seems to have another number also - 232.

There are some mentions of him on the digitised newspapers of the Australian National Library.

The Maitland Mercury & Hunter River General Advertiser, Saturday 15 November 1845 has a notice saying that the goods and effects of the late Benjamin BULMER are to be sold at Dagworth - don't know where that is.

Same paper, 13  December 1845,  has an account of a robbery committed by others against their master - Benjamin.  Also says he was apparently killed by a dray passing over him.

The Sydney Gazette and New South Wales Advertiser, Saturday 11 March 1837 has notice of granting ticket-of-leave, residing in Windsor district at that time.

There are a couple of others - he apparently lived in Maitland at the time of his death, occupation: carter.

I searched using his name, and dates between 1830 and 1859.
