I understand Jacob came from Berkshire and Catherine from Kilkenny, Ireland. Jacob was sentenced to 14 years and would have been free by 1833 so Catherine must have applied to the Governor to marry.

Hi Sandra The Indents for each convict transport are available at many libraries on microfiche. It depends on when a convict arrived as to how much information is provided but basic information such as the sentence they received is. Convicts permissions to marry are also available on microfiche and it is because I have transcribed all these convict related documents that I was able to state that Catherine was a convict at the time and that she had to apply to marry. Actually Jacob had also applied to marry Mary or Margaret Hart a few years previously - they did marry, but she died in 1833 - the same year he married Catherine. Catherine arrived on the Forth II in 1830 Lesley Uebel mailto:ckennedy@bigpond.net.au CLAIM A CONVICT http://users.bigpond.net.au/convicts/index.html -----Original Message----- From: aus-convicts-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:aus-convicts-bounces@rootsweb.com]On Behalf Of Sandra & Phil West Sent: Saturday, October 25, 2008 7:55 PM To: aus-convicts@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [AUS-CON] Jacob Winter - Catherine Laffan Lesley Thanks for your reply.
