    3. Hi List, I was wondering whether anyone on the list who visits the Tasmanian archives would mind doing some research for me? I am looking for information on a John GRIFFITHS who was tried at the Old Bailey 29 May 1828, aged 18, sentence 7 years. It is unknown on what ship he arrived or whether he arrived in Tasmania or NSW. 2 possibilities are John Griffiths who arrived on the Vittoria, arrival date 17th January, 1829 in New South Wales, Fiche No. 671, Page No. 125, Film 398, Shelf No. 4/4014 Possibly the ship Vittoria travelled to Devenport then on to Sydney. John GRIFFITHS per 'Lady Harwood' departed London 26 March 1829 I have found a few references to a John GRIFFITHS on the Archives website and was also given a possibility for his death, which are below, if anyone can help I would be very greatful Tasmanian Census Griffiths John 1842 Launceston CEN1/26 137 Griffiths John 1843 Launceston CEN1/64 141 Griffiths John 1848 Launceston CEN1/97 436 Convict Applications for permission to marry Family Name (1) Given Name (1) Ship or Free (1) Family Name (2) Given Name (2) Ship or Free (2) Date CON Ref RGD Ref GRIFFITHS John free BLAKEY Emma Cadet 02 DEC 1851 CON52/4 GRIFFITHS John free COLLINS Johanna Duke of Cornwall 13 JAN 1854 CON52/7 p152 RGD37/13 : 1854/678 GRIFFITHS John free CULLY Mary America 00 OCT 1832 CON45/1 RGD36/2 : 1833/2238 GRIFFITHS John John STANNARD Margaret free 03 MAY 1838 CON52/1 p68 RGD36/3 : 1838/4236 GRIFFITHS John Lord Lyndoch MORIARTY Ellen free 06 NOV 1849 CON52/3 p168 RGD37/8 : 1849/54 GRIFFITHS John Prince of Orange McMASTER Isabella free 13 APR 1840 CON52/1 p70 Possible death in Tasmania SURNAME: GRIFFITHS GIVEN NAMES JOHN EVENT Death SEX Male REGISTRATION PLACE HOBART EVENT DATE 27MAY EVENT YEAR 1879 AGE 70 REGISTRATION YEAR 1879 REGISTRATION NUMBER 1870 RGD NUMBER 35 First names : John Surname : GRIFFITHS Age : 70 Date of death : Service type : Burial Service date : 29-May-1879 Last residence : DEPT Grave location - Cemetery : Cornelian Bay Area or denomination : Pauper Section : A Site number : Number 273, kind regards Kerry, Ipswich, Queensland
