James NOCKTON, born c1836, Middlesex

[BAC3]

Hello,

Can anyone help with details for James NOCKTON other than those quoted below:

(1):    In 1851 (not on Census but convict records) his mother was Margaret NOCKTON, living
         at 19 Rose Street, Long Acre:
(2):    He had been sentenced on 05/08/1851 to transportation for 10 years: this was later
          commuted and he was released early from Parkhurst Prison on 26/10/1855: release
          records refer to him as MOCKTON and state his destination was Bloomsbury.

Thank you,

BAC3

Hello lizdb,

The Warwickshire connection is interesting......right age, too!!  Demands some research.

The East London Margaret KNOCKTON is a sister possibility??
