Hi All my name is Sharon from Rochester Victoria Australia. I am looking for info on John Bird. John was born abt 1820 in Bethenal Green London and he married Susannah. John was convicted of housebreaking and Larceny and transported to Tasmania Australia in 1847. When he was convicted John changed his name to "Williams". In 1852 he married Sarah Harvey and began his new family in Australia. Any information about John before his conviction and Susannah would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Reagards Sharon =========================================== Sharon Ross sharon@river.net.au Rochester, VIC, 3561 AUSTRALIA Home Page: http://users.river.net.au/~mross/ Family names: Pursell, Lahl, Reason, Wilton, Dillon, Morley, Cohen, Williams, Ross, Glasson, Arnold ===========================================
