Warwick Assizes Trial 27th March 1819
« on: Saturday 19 April 14 02:23 BST (UK) »
Can sks help me.
Looking for trial of John BOUCHER who was tried at Warwick Assizes on 27th March 1819.
He was convicted of Larceny and transported to Tasmania aboard the "Dromedary" arriving Hobart January 1820.
Trying to find details of his offence, what did he steal and why was he transported?
Would the trial notes give his address, parents or other personal details.
Kind regards
