Gaol VS Jail !!!!!!!!!!!!!! It took me awhile in my genealogy experience, ( or lack of ) to realize that these were two different spellings for the hoosegow, and am curious to find out why, how and when was the spelling changed to the current spelling today. Will be interested in the replies....................

Eliza Wilson born 1808 Wexford, was transported from Cork 1833 to Botany Bay. As Eliza was tried and transported from Cork, I would like to know if anyone knows what information Cork County Goal registers 1819 -1933 would hold, the LDS has the records and as it can take up to 3 months to get records sent to our local LDS I would give you knowledgeable guys a go first. I know this a a long shot but thought I would give it a try. If all else fails I'll try the Cork message board. Marian Mildura, Aust. -- I am using the free version of SPAMfighter for private users.
