Essex / Kirby Rioters 1830
« on: Monday 05 November 12 14:14 GMT (UK)  »
The brothers James, Thomas and John Grant were all sent to Van Dieman's Land (Tasmania) on the Eliza in 1831 for machine breaking.
I know what happened to Thomas's wife Sarah - she is my g-g-grannie.
I know John was single when he left England.
James had married to Sarah Sallows at Kirby in 1829, and had Mary 1830, and Sarah 1831 was born after he left England.
I can't find Sarah (mum), Mary or Sarah (dau) anywhere.
Has anyone out there found anything of them?
Has anyone in Tasmania found anything on Jim, Tom or Jack?
I would love to know, please.

Essex / New 'Chatter' - unsure what I'm doing.
« on: Monday 29 October 12 14:19 GMT (UK)  »
      I'm new to this, but I am looking for Thomas Grant who married Mary Purkiss at Kirby le Soken, October 1791.        I am also looking for Edward Hammond who married Martha Weaver at Witham, February 1753.         I have lots of descendants, including three Kirby Rioters, but no ancestors for any of them.
      Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated.
