Hi Listers, Has anyone any information they can share with me regarding the voyage of the "Louisa". The ship delivered its cargo of 90 women to Sydney in December 1827. I am particularly interested in discovering the details of the passengers who accompanied their mothers on this trip. Many of the girls, I understand brought their children with them. My own 4xGreat grandmother (Ann Goldie) brought her four young daughters on this trip. Does anyone happen to have a list of the children brought here by here convict mothers? I am interested in any information anyone might have on this voyage (not on the state of mind of the Ship's Master upon arrival - it is a "given" that with a load of women and little children, he must have been certifiably insane by the time he docked!)

Hello Kerri I am interested in your mention of Ann Goldie. Was she Scottish? My 2xGt Grandmother, Janet Goldie, had an older sister Ann born in Paisley, Renfrewshire in 1793. I have no other details for Ann, other than that her parents were John Goldie and Margaret McKell.
