I am new to this list and would appreciate any help and/or information about My Brick Wall. I am the 4X Great Grandaughter of F/F Convict Joseph Hatton and am reserching Rosamond Sparrow. Rose, aka Rosamond, Sparrow was transported to Pt. Jackson in the second Fleet (Mary Ann - 1791]. Also on the Mary Ann was one, Ann Sparrow, whom I believe to be Rosamond's Mother. Ann Sparrow died in Sydney and was buried in January,1792. Rosamond married Joseph Hatton on 18th March, 1792. In 1795 she stabbed him while in a rage and after he recovered ask that she not be punished but be sent away from him. She was in trouble whilst with another convict and was punished by having her head shaved, wearing an iron collar & spending some time in gaol. She appeared in various Colony Musters, in 1802 she was a Housekeeper for Mr. T. Oliver at Wilberforce. In 1816 she was recorded as single and in Hawkesbury. In 1817 she referred to herself as a Veteran's wife, in 1822 she was unemployed in Parramatta. In 1828 at the age of 65 she was a Lodger at Mr. James Oliver's in Wilberforce. She seems to vanish after 1828 Census and I have found no Death information on her, and no mention of any children. I have been on cemetary crawls around Wilberforce in NSW but found nothing. If a grave or Headstone exists it could be on the property where they were living. Even though she is not part of my Lineage I would like to find out what happened to her so I can lay her to rest and get on with it. She, is my Brickwall. Regards, Cheryl in Brisbane.
