Hi All Looking for any information on Abraham Wade who arrived as a convict. I found on the Archives online search that he arrived on the Eliza in 1822. It has ticket of leave in the remarks section: district: Airds York 1822. Does this mean he got the ticket as soon as he arrived or shortly there after?? He got his certificate of freedom in 1830 on 16 September. Any other information or links to further information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Louise

Hi Louise He received his TOL in 1828 - Number 28/153 and to remain in the district of Airds. The York portion of what you found was where he was tried eg. York (Leeds Boro) Quarter Session (22 April 182) - taken from my records What sort of other information are you after?
