H Arnie Mary was about 20 years of age when she arrived in 1815. The Old Bailey gives her age at 19 when she was convicted in 1814. What was she doing between arrival and the 1828 NSW Census ?? She married :) She obtained permission to marry Frederick Salmon in 1817 at Parramatta. If you check the Colonial Secretary Index you will find the following PERRY, Mary. Per "Admiral Gambier" 1817 Apr 7,19 Re permission to marry at Parramatta (Reel 6005; 4/3496 pp.118-9) This is incorrect as are over 25% of the other marriages noted on that index - as I found when I transcribed the marriage permissions between 1810 and 1825. . It should read that Mary arrived on the Northampton. On checking the 1822 General Muster and the 1823/4/5 General Muster List I see that my transcription was correct as they have her listed as Mary Salmon arriving on the Northampton. They do not appear to have had any children and probably separated in the mid 1820's 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 fletch Sent: Wednesday, February 18, 2009 2:59 PM To: AUS-PT-JACKSON-CONVICTS@rootsweb.com Subject: [PJ] perry Hi List, I have a Mary Perry, who at the age of 31, arrived in PJ per " Northhampton " in 1815 to serve a 7 year sentence. According to the Col. Sec. papers 1788-1825 she was to be employed at the Factory at Parramatta on June 23 1815. According to the 1828 census she is noted as being Free by Servitude, Servant to George Richards. Being 13 years after her arrival she had obviously served out her time and was wondering if she would have still been employed / assigned to the Factory at Parramatta or was she working else where before she ended up in George Richards employ ? Any ideas. Regards Arnie

Lesley, Many thanks.
