My search is for a  Henry Lomas one of 236 convicts transported on the Mangles, 08 December 1832"   "Convicted at Notts Town Quarter Session for a term of 7 years on 4 July 1832.  "   "Mangles"   "08 December 1832"   "New South Wales"
Is this my Henry as I have no other information from the arrest or trial
Any help is much appreciated from here in Australia

21 July 1832 - Nottingham and Newark Mercury - Nottingham. & other papers

Henry Lomas age 25 for embezzling from his master John Tebbutt several small sums of money and having been previously convicted of felony 7 years [transportation]

It’s as if he was trying hard to be transported, there are several court appearances up to that date and he has stolen from John Tebbutt before, and been in prison for same, John Tebbutt “kindly“ took him back hoping he had reformed.

Added, age 25 so born about 1807.  And that is what convict records I can see have too.  Where are you seeing 1815?

I have his MC and DC
He shows up in the 1851 and 1861 and 1871 Census
Just dont have much information between his birth in 1815 and his marriage in 1846

In 1841 isn’t he likely to be the male servant in St Marylebone age 25 (rounded down) born out of county.

This is the baptism for the Henry b in Wollaton:

1815 10 08   Henry   LOMAS     WOLLATON St Leonards   
Father Ralph, labourer
Mother Sarah

However, there is a burial for Henry Lomas in Wollaton in 1871, given age 56, so I think that's likely to be this Henry, thereby ruling him out as the transportee.
