My name is Norm Johnston, I live in Canberra, Australia. I am trying to track down a Richard Bushell who was transported as a convict from England to Sydney, NSW, in 1834/1835. He was tried in the Gloucester Azzizes on 29 Mar 1834. He had been an engineer's apprentice. If this is the person I am looking for he changed his name to Bushnell in about 1846. His death certificate says his father's name was Isaac Bushnell (but I suspect that should be Bushell) and his mother's name was Edith Martin. His death certificate says he was born in Bristol (which is in Gloucestershire) and the year would have been about 1816. Any assistance would be appreciated Norm Researching: MACCARTHY (all states); BUSHNELL, LANDELLS, PATTERSON, LAY, GAW (Qld); MUDDLE (NSW, Qld); PARNELL, STANTON, HARRADINE (NSW); JOHNSTON (NSW, Vic); ROSS, CLEELAND (Vic) ____________________________________________ Norm Johnston PO Box 29 Rivett ACT 2611 (02) 62880379 ____________________________________________________________________ Postal Address Home Address -------------- ------------ N.A.Johnston N.A.Johnston PO Box 29 15 Rapanea St Rivett Rivett ACT 2611 ACT 2611 Australia Australia Ph +61 2 62880379
