Title: Convict women transported on ship "Friends"
Post by: lithgowwood on Sunday 13 December 09 08:18 GMT (UK)

I have several women who were transported on the convict ship Friends to NSW in 1811.  I would like to know any details of the women or their crimes.  Any help much appreciated.  The women are
Ann Hall or Hale convicted Hertford Assizes 9th Oct 1810
Mary Wilmot St Albans quarter sessions 3 May 1810

Hi

A link to NSW archives, you can order records from them.

I can see Ann Hall but not Mary Wilmot
