I am new to this list and am researching my GGGrandmother MARY DAVIS.
Mary arrived in Tasmania (Australia) as a convict, on the "Emma Eugenia"
which left Woolwich on 24th November 1841, she was 18 and had been
convicted of the theft of an apron and a pair of stockings , She was tried
at Glamorgan Quarter Sessions ,she received 7 years for this crime and was
transported, she came under an assumed name of Mary Evans and there is
evidence she gave birth to a child, but no trace of this child has been
found, she later married another convict John Peter Murray and so the
family grew...........................
Mary's Mother was Elizabeth and she had two brothers John and David also a
sister Rachel ,no father listed or found so I am assuming he had passed on
by the date Mary was convicted.
I would like to find out where she came from and if there are decendants
of this family.
I am on a very limited budget so any help would be very gratefully
received, I am also more than willing to share all the information I have
on Mary's decendants and her life in Australia.
thank you
Suzanne in Australia
