Hello Pat, Thanks for responding...... I am actually a mature Postgraduate researching for a PhD on Parkhurst Prison 1838-1864 and juvenile offenders, one of whom was Emanuel BLIGHT. By 1864 only WA was taking transportees and I have checked the Fremantle Prison website and no entry, although after he went to Dartmoor Prison he had just 4 months of his sentence to serve and would not have been transported. And of course he did not re-offend. What happened to him after Dartmoor is a complete mystery!! Take care, Tony From: Pat Banks <tencreek@tpg.com.au> To: Tony Cocks <tonycocks1@yahoo.com>; cornish@rootsweb.com Sent: Friday, 20 July 2012, 15:33 Subject: Re: [CORNISH] Emanuel (Manuel) BLIGHT, Born 1843/1846 Hullo Tony I have not done any studies on convicts but could Emanuel have been deported? They were coming to Australia around that time, some from Parkhurst.

He is transferred to Dartmoor Prison on 30/03/1864 to complete his 4 years penal servitude and is scheduled to be released on 02/07/1864. And from this point onwards he literally vanishes. There are no Census returns for him, nor IGI entries and he appears not to have re-offended according to criminal registers. > > Can anyone help please? > > Regards, > > Tony Cocks > ------------------------------- > Subscribe to digest by sending an email to CORNISH-D-request@rootsweb.com with the word SUBSCRIBE in the subject line and body text.
