To find out what this and other developments mean to you, plan on attending this talk. A long to-do list will likely be the result.
https://www.familysearch.org/The July Zoom talk will be held on Thursday 28th July at 7pm for 7.30pm.
The talk is ' The 9 lives of Mina Jury' with Claire Moores.
Claire Moores is an independent history researcher with over 20 years experience of genealogical and local historical research projects.
Mina Jury was transported to Van Dieman's land age 17 for stealing some jewellery from her employer. After she got her ticket of leave she married and had 11 children. However, after her husband's death she then returned to England to appear as a minor witness in the trial of the Tichborne Claimant in 1873. Uprooted from the stable life she had created in Australia, Mina went on to live a life of theft and fraud in England.
