Convict Conduct Record
« on: Saturday 19 August 23 01:42 BST (UK) »
Hi everyone,

Can anyone help with the following? So far I have

Transported for uttering a forged conditional pardon. Married
1 child. Stated his offence. Uttering a forged conditional pardon in
my possession. To NSW Henry Tanner 1834. Tried Woolwich Life.
for uttering a bill of exchange for 32 pounds. I passed myself off as free for
nearly 3 years. I was a ? at the school when I first ? (went?) ? ?
overseer of the carpenters, which prevented my attending.

Many thanks.

I think that phrase reads: "I was a monitor at the school where I first went and then overseer of the carpenters,"

Hi,

I think it might be Stated this offence.

Warm greetings (32.7 °C here and rising...)
Karen

Edit: I am not sure about it being "Uttering" following "offence."  ???

Thanks Karen.

Yes its definitely "Stated his offence". It means during his trial he stated what is offence was. Also, it is "Uttering" as that is what his offence was, and is noted on many records.

Cheers

Mason, I think Karen is saying that it's "this" offence rather than "his" offence; compare it with the "th" in "monitor at the school".

Agree also with Karen & your explanation that it reads 'this offence' not 'his offence'

Just adding in support that "stated this offence" is the usual wording on these records.
