  Great thank you xx

I found some..but not sure if they are correct, so whatever you come up with will be great. It may confirm or dis-prove what I have found on the net

I wonder if Sarah plumb and joseph elks had anymore children other than Harriett

[swampinstein]

  I found a convict Plumb who was sent to Tasmania in 1823. Grandson of Samuel Plumb (1727) Lambley and Elizabeth Foster.
He was sent there in 1823 (not sure what for yet) when he was there he got mixed up with a bush ranger and was shot in the chin and jaw and died several days later....buried Hobart 1826

     John Plumb was an Highway Man

The one sent to Aus, was the highway man.....he got the death sentence that was reprieved and sent to Tasmania....went on the Trove aussie newspaper archive site to find out more because that is free to look at whole articles and found the bit about him absconding with some bandits/murders and then about the shoot out with him getting shot........I didn't know he was an highwayman so went and asked on the notts board to see if anyone could find out....and some people on there helped me find what he was convicted off.

Sarah Elks(nee Plumb) it's her uncle's son who is the highwayman

Hi,
Here's some of what I found yesterday, will be back later with more:

William Plumb of Lambley married Mary Lane of Bulcote on 6 June 1789 at Burton Joyce Church. Witnesses were Joseph Plumb and George Hickling.

Have yet to find Burial for William’s first wife Mary between 1893 and Dec 1795
William died 15 Jan 1815 burial 17 Jan 1815 aged 49yrs. I need to recheck this as I thought his Will said he died 1814.

William was christened on 6 June 1766 son of Samuel and Elizabeth Plumb.
