Hi Jeanette, Both William and John are listed on the Qld State Library convict website as follows: John Brentnall was one of 176 convicts who arrived on the Medway 28.7.1825 AJCP microfilm ii HO/11/5 p.285. He is listed as convicted at Derby Assizes for a term of life. William Brentnall is listed as one of 376 convicts on the Fairlie dep.1.7.1833 arr. 14.10.1833. Convicted at Notts Qtr sessions AJCP microfilm Roll 90 Piece No. HO11/9 p.241. You should be able to find info on John in the 1828 census on CD at many libraries. In my case one of my convicts was tried at Hereford Quarter Sessions and I contacted Herefordshire Council and was able to get details of his trial for about $36.00 (that was five years ago now) You could check Nottingham Council's website and see if they have a family history section and make enquiries. Good luck with your search Lyn Subject: [PJ] Nottingham Quarter Sessions > Hi Leslie, > I'm hoping that since this site is about convicts it may also cover > the trials that led them to being sent to the colonies.

Hi Lyn The Medway arrived in Tasmania in 1825 so no entry for John will be found in the 1828 NSW Census Regards Lesley Uebel mailto:ckennedy@bigpond.net.au CLAIM A CONVICT http://users.bigpond.net.au/convicts/index.html -----Original Message----- From: aus-pt-jackson-convicts-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:aus-pt-jackson-convicts-bounces@rootsweb.com]On Behalf Of Stan Elgood Sent: Friday, January 16, 2009 3:48 PM To: aus-pt-jackson-convicts@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [PJ] Nottingham Quarter Sessions Hi Jeanette, Both William and John are listed on the Qld State Library convict website as follows: John Brentnall was one of 176 convicts who arrived on the Medway 28.7.1825 AJCP microfilm ii HO/11/5 p.285.

Hi Lesley, Sorry, it was a fleeting thought at the conclusion of typing up of the info I had found before having to go out so I didn't stop to consider where the ship landed. I'm sure Jeanette will note your correction. I hope the other info was useful to her.
