Hi Listers I am very new to this list and am hoping you are able to help please. My convict is Henry Smart transported on Lord Lyndoch 1 in 1831. I tracked him down through Irene Wyatt's Transportees from Gloucestershire to Australia 1783 - 1842. I also have details of the Lord Lyndoch from The Convict Ships. Other names on the same page in Wyatt are: William Skull, William Slade, Ann Slater, John Sley, Joseph Sly, Charles Smart, William Smart, Aaron Smith, Ambrose Smith, Amelia Smith w. of Joseph, Charles Smith, Charles Godwin Smith, Edmund Smith als Edward Smith, Edwin Smith, Edwin Smith - yes there are 2 of them . These people range from1788 to 1840 all living in Gloucestershire. The book lists address/occupation , sentence, transport and source. I did photocopy a couple of other pages as well. A and C if anyone is interested. Through the Gloucestershire Record Office I have the the Gaol Register which does give description of Henry . I also have indictment file from the National Archives. Unfortunately the trial records were not available. Heavy weeding of the files had taken place from about 1830, only depositions in capital cases, usually murder and riot , tend to survive. - I was so near!!!!! Somebody kindly looked up Tasmanian Convicts on another list. --- Henry Smart is Convict No. 70718 . what do you think I should do next please? or could anybody help please? I have no info on Henry once he was in Australia. I don't think Henry died in Tasmania so I took stab and ordered Death Certificate from NSW BDM (where his daughter later went) but I ordered wrong certificate!! PS I work in Archive and Local History Centre in Selkirk, Scotland so could do a bit of looking up for Scottish Borders info - OPRs, Censuses Thanks Rosemary (dreich day in Selkirk)

Hello Robert Have you ordered Henry Smart's convict records from the Archives Office of Tasmania. You may also wish to look at the Permissions to Marry index online at http://resources.archives.tas.gov.au/archmarriage/default.asp in case he married in Tasmania.
