Hi Mary have you had any luck with John Salmon? regards gina

Hi Mary how are you? Thank you for your very kind offer. I am looking for George Mason (a coach painteer) on 21.03.1848 he was age 19 and attempted to murder my dear old ancestor Christianna Wilkes. There is an article about the incident in the Times Newspaper. He appeared in court 11th Feb 1848. Committed for trail. Not sure when the trail date was but on documents later when Christianna was applying for a pension it states Mason had been deported. Do not know if you can find anything about his departure from England, Many thanks and regards Irene

Hello Mary, Thanks for your kind offer. Could you please look for : James Barlow bn. Manchester abt 1812, possibly transported during the 1830s to NSW. Thanks & regards, Kay

Hi Mary Thanks for the offer. Can you find anything for Elijah JOEL, transported about 1836 or Lazarus JACOBS (abt 1827) ? Thanks Diane

Hi Mary Thankyou for finding Archibald McCrossan. Much appreciated Kerri

Sorry Mary, I must have had a 'senior moment'! Thanks for the offer anyway. Best wishes, Lilian

Hi Gillian Got him as follows: Thomas Dover Convicted at Newcastle upon Tyne Quarter Sessions on 3/11844 sentenced to 7 years. Transported 15/3/1844 on Vessel London to Van Diemans Land( New Zealand) Tough times!! Regards Mary

Hi Mary Hampton, Middlesex. As to when? Let me know which ones you have and i will try and work it out. He is said to have been hanged? Not sure if this helps any. gina

Hi Mary, Could you see if Thomas Dover transported c1844 to Australia is in the database please. His crime was receiving stolen flour/wheat. He was sentenced in Newcastle. Thanks, Gillian

Hi Gina Do you know which County Hampton is in as there are at least 13 towns or villages called Hampton in England,also any idea of when he may have been transported?? Mary

Hi Mary He may have been from the Hampton area, England. Not 100% certain. Alot of the Salmons come from this same area. regards gina

OOOPS ! You did give the dates quite clearly Mary...this is probably why I can't find people on the census...not enough attention to detail !! Many thanks to you, Margaret.

Hi Lilian Tranportation records only go up to 1868. Sorry Mary

Hi Margaret Transportation records only go up to 1868. Sorry Mary

Hi Geoff Sorry no record for Richard Bedford Allen between 1859 and 1868. Regards Mary

Hi Mary, I would appreciate you looking for William (John) Linden (Lindon, Lyndon) anytime after 1883. Many thanks, Lilian

Hello Mary...thanks for the offer ... OWEN GEORGE HARRIS.. or...GEORGE OWEN HARRIS 1891 Census H.M. Prison Warwick St Mary Owen George Harris, Prisoner, 24, AG LAB, b Welford Glos. This chappie is of interest to me, but there is no trace after this sighting, maybe he was transported ???/ Many Thanks, Margaret.

Hi Gina There are 12 John Salmons listed.Do you know where John was born or may have been living at the time of his conviction? No ages are shown on the database only the place where they were convicted. So some idea of where the offence took place would be very helpful. Regards Mary
