A little more on James Wiskin and Susanna Larter.
James and Susannah had five children between 1820 and 1831, William, George, Edward, Alfred and Eliza. All were baptised in Weybread and Mendham, Suffolk.
In March 1832 James was convicted of sheep stealing and transported to Van Dieman's Land, arriving in February 1833. He received a Conditional Pardon in March 1846, but I can find no further references to James.
James' son Edward emigrated to Australia in 1855 with wife Maria, while William's son Arthur emigrated to Australia in about 1875.
Susanna remarried Charles Rush in 1841 and died in June 1856.
