Hello,
I am researching my ggg grandmother's family history.
Mary Birmingham was convicted at York in 1852 for stealing. She was
transported to Hobart Tasmania in 1853 for 7 years with thee of her
children,Henry 3 ,James 6 and Peter 7 years old.
Mary gave her' native place' as Kildare Ireland .Her age is stated
as 42.
Her death [ Melbourne 1887] certificate states her children's names
were James, Peter, Henry, Sarah, Elizabeth, Alice ,Catherine ,Maria,
I have no idea when all these children were born but considering her
age ,it may have been in Great Britain, most likely.
I would be most gratefull if you can help in any way ,
