Lesley Just when I was getting my aunt comfortable about a convict ancestor. Do you know any researchers who can assist with early Melbourne births?

A few years after their marriage in 1821, Robert was up in Moreton Bay and Mary in the Factory. Robert obtained a Ticket of Leave in 1839 and I am pretty certain it for the Maitland area (NSW). It was not until 1844 that Robert obtained his Conditional Pardon.
