Hello All Does anybody out there know what "unlawfully grounding" means ? My GG Grandfather was found guilty of this in Tasmania in 1869 and was sentenced to 2 years imprisonment. He had received his free cert in 1853. I thought that it may possibly be using someone else's land ? Thanks. Jane Elliott
Jane, Would it have anything to do with grounding a ship ie running a ship aground - unlawfully?
