Seeking any assistance or advice available to locate info regarding my 3xggrandfather John GREEN who is beleived to have been born abt. 1808.
His Trial Records indicate"Late of the Parish of Saint Lawrence in the Borough of Reading in the County of Berks"
Standing Number 29 / 778
Name John GREEN 2
Ship Mellish
Master VINCENT
Year 1829
Native Place Oxfordshire
Trade or Calling Laborer
Offence Stealing Poney
Sentence Life
Year of Birth 1808
Height 5 feet 5 3/4 inches
Complexion Dark ruddy
Hair Brown
Eyes Light Hazel
General Remarks Horizontal Scar over right eye & small one above.
The subject of the theft apparently belonged to a Samuel PALMER. I assume that he was a farmer in the area of St Lawrence.
The names of the Jurors Sworn were John Belcher - Johnathon Butteridge - Benjamin Blackman - Francis Clarke - Joseph Corderoy - John Faulkner - Benjamin Finch - Joseph Fruin - Richard Higgs - William Higgs - John Hissey - Edward Howse.
I would certainly appreciate any info on any of the persons listed, in particular John GREEN.
I don't know if John had any siblings nor do I know anything of his life or other family in the UK.
Cheers
Len
