    2. Wendy Boland
    3. G'day All Sorry to cross post - I know many of you are on both Birmingham and Warwick Lists. Posting this message on Tony's behalf - Pickard hopes to list the Warwickshire offenders on his web site soon. Please contact Tony off list if you can help- many of the boys were from Birmingham! Cheers Wendy Boland. Co-ordinator Warwickshire 1861 census and FreeREG Transcription Teams Co-admin Warwick List "Hopefully some of you may be able to help me. I am a mature PhD student at Southampton University researching the 4,099 juvenile offenders who passed through Parkhurst Prison over the period 1838-1864. About 250 originated from Warwickshire, quite a large number of whom were eventually transported........my database contains substantial details of these 250, mostly before transportation or release, and I would be delighted to share this information with anyone who has any knowledge, no matter how small, of any of the individual offenders. Some of the information I have is not generally available, except if you visit Parkhurst and trawl through the records. Do please contact me via bac3@soton.ac.uk or tonycocks1@yahoo.com Sincerely Tony Cocks"
