Ann MARSHALL - Bonded Passenger

[Candolim_Imp]

Sorry to anyone who has seen this on the other board... I'm hopig for more luck here.
I'm looking for the convict transport record for Anne Marshall, sentenced to 7 years' transportation, carried out in Lent 1746.

Bonded Passengers to America (9 vols. In 3)

 I'm hoping some kind soul with could provide me with the full details of Anne's entry in this database

I would really appreciate help with this

Really? That's so disappointing. I'm desperately trying to find details of the ship, port of departure & arrival... anything that might lead us to tracing her after her arrival (such as details of indenture & any life events after her sentence was completed).

Thanks for checking

This is very exciting! Are you sure about the ship/captain? The information myself and another researcher found was that she was on a different ship with a different captain (not easy to check from my phone, but I think the ship was the Mary or something similar, with a Captain Johnstone I think). There is another entry suggesting her ship was wrecked, but the captain went on to serve on other voyages, suggesting the information was either incorrect or that not all were lost at sea.

I no longer think I'm directly descended from Anne, but am of course still related (all of us from the old families are related many times over), but I still very much want to find out what happened to her. It's such a tragic, but strangely romantic tale - most men of the time with young children, especially a newborn, would quickly look for a new mother & carer for the brood, but her husband remained single for the rest of his life - I wonder if he hoped that she'd one day find her way home (against the odds for a poor transportee).
Considering they were most certainly illiterate, they didn't even have the comfort of letters.

I did some more digging last night after i Messaged you.
they said in the birth records that she was transported over lent.
there was only one ship that set off at that time
Apr  1746 Laura        .William Gracie   London      Maryland                                  84T53/42/220.
But then I found this, need to dig a bit deeper, but yes it is a tragedy, sad in many ways.
Virginia isn't far either.

The year isn't right - could there be an error over the year in that index? We know we have the year correct because of the trial and baptism. An answer to this feels so tantalisingly close
