Australia / V D L convict search 1803
« on: Friday 02 April 10 03:27 BST (UK)  »
looking to find any and all inf regarding Mary Hayes who was a convict on the Glatton 1803, she had with her Martha her daughter and Henry her husband followed her out there. Martha I know became a mistress to LT John Bowen (although by my reckoning she would of been about 13) and had 2 children to him, they were part of the group that were the first settlers of Tasmania...does anyone know what happened to Martha and her children ? where Mary Maria Hayes nee De Knight is buried ? I know she remarried after Henry died? would love to make contact with any of her family :o

 :o  I cant find her birth record anywhere, her name was Joan Cooke she was born 27 July 1929 along with her twin sister Dorothy in Manchester... I think in Gorton or Openshaw (sorry I live in NZ so they could be the same place), infact I cant find her brothers Alfred born 1926 and Charles born 1936  ::) it is like they were all found in a cabbage patch. Their parents names were Charles and Lydia Cooke. I have looked high and low but think I must be missing something, can anyone out there please tell me where they are ? many thanks in advance...sue
