Robinson of Lancashire, Liverpool 1805

[kerrynstafford59]

Hi,
Have been doing my family history for a number of years on and off and have recently taken up a course which got me heading down a particular road.   I am after information on a Margaret (nee Peers) and Peter Robinson who married in Liverpool, Lancashire on the 17th May, 1824.   I believe she ended up a convict and was sent to VDL in 1832 but another person tracing this family disputes this is the case even though others have also added this Margaret to their trees.   Is there anyone on Rootschat have Margaret or Peter Robinson in their trees.  Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome to RootsChat 

It would appear that the Margaret Robinson who was transported in 1832 was aged 27 and a married women, however the offence was carried out in Dudley, Worcestershire. Therefore could this be Margaret Robinson who married in Lancashire?

There appears to be a further child James with parents Peter and Margaret mmn Peers born in 1838 christened in Walton Hill.
If this is the right family, then the mother Margaret was obviously not transported in 1832.

Thank you to all.   It is so confusing and certainly maybe the case I have been given the wrong Margaret Robinson.   Oh well back to the drawing board.   Your help is much appreciated.

Ok.   Can I then ask for help please.   My convict Margaret Robinson who I believe is my ancestor but after all the responses who knows now.   Came out on the ship Hydrey to VDL in 1832.   She was 27 years old.   It was noted she was married, could read and write and had two children.  Any help now would be appreciated.

Regards,

Kerryn

If you could give us a starting point in your line then perhaps we could follow the line back in the hope of clarifying who the correct Margaret was.
