I've just purchased two wrong birth details, I'm getting no matches in the advanced search, what details did you use? The more detail I type in, I get no matches, and fewer details the wrong matches

Thank you, I've made a note of the book, shall put in a request when next at the library
My ancestor sailed on the Barrosa from Sheerness, Kent on 30 August 1841, and the surgeon was Dr Henry Mahon RN. Now hoping to find out if there's a surgeon's report still in existence.

Conditional Pardon - so he never had the chance to go back, and from I've been able to find, none of his siblings came to Australia either. He definitely was completely cut off from all his family! He went on to have 12 children so I guess made up for it!
I've been told that many of the later convict ships have a surgeon's report, which may have details of the passengers on board. Just not sure how to go about finding them!
Thank you so much for your help, great to have another pair of eyes

Thanks Wiggy,
What I can make out is June 1842 midconduct in feigning sickness, reprimanded,
July 1843 disobedience of orders, 14 days solitary confinement ?
Misconduct going to doctor in plea of illness to leave himself from work, absent from station without a leave pass, 24 hours solitary confinement.
Is this what you read? Any corrections, additions most welcome.
