Hi Cynthia, Yes, I have two Lincolnshire convicts in my family tree that I know of- Edward Babington and his son Richard. Thanks, I would like to know if there is any mention of them in the publication "Convicts of Lincolnshire." Kind regards, Susan, in NSW.

Hi Susan, Both are listed. The publication is of convicts from 1789 - 1840 sent to Australia with an appendix of a small amount of convicts sent to Bermuda between 1822 - 1839. Edward Babington age 49 date of trial 8/3/1823 Lincoln Assizes sentence for life Revesby off. Left 1824 for VDL on the Phoenix. Richard Babington no age given date of trial 27/10/1829 LQS (Lindsey Quarter Sessions) sentence 7 years left 1830 to NSW on the Nithsdale Hope this is of help. Regards Cynthia in sunny (at the moment) Lincolnshire -----Original Message----- From: aus-convicts-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:aus-convicts-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Susan Lamberton Sent: 16 October 2008 12:22 To: aus-convicts@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [AUS-CON] WELLS Hi Cynthia, Yes, I have two Lincolnshire convicts in my family tree that I know of- Edward Babington and his son Richard.
