Hi List, I have posted before - this brick wall of mine...but I am hoping afresh... that someone on the list may be able to help. I found on the IGI a marriage between a Sarah FOWLER and Robert LARCOMBE 21 MAY 1802 Axminster, Devon, England. My 4xGreat-Grandfather was Robert LARCOMBE b.1810c Devon/Somerset? He was transported to Australia onboard the JOHN BARRY in 1839. At the time of his crime, it was recorded that he was a Stone Mason Apprentice of 2½ years. His partner in crime was a John FOWLER who was also transported to Australia on the JOHN BARRY in 1839. From convict records in Australia, John would have been born about 1807. I am wondering if, John & Robert could have been related? Any assistance would be very much appreciated!!
