Her page is here From a Rootsweb entry dated 1999, Esther Scott is believed to have been born in 1814 at Launceston. In the book by Mr Buchanan titled "Births in Tasamania - 1830" there are three entries for Esther Scott. These are Scott Esther 1814 Ltn MM1 1820 p15, Scott Esther 1814 LtnCofE 373/5 GI, Scott Esther 1818 Ltn CSO/1122A p62, I have copies of the references for the first and last entries but have been unable to locate the entry LtnCofE, 373/5, GI, which I assume means the Launceston Church of England General Index. Does anyone know how I could get a copy of this reference? As far as I know Esther was born to the free settlers Thomas Scott and Mary Tracey. Are there any shipping records for the period since the first settlement at port Dalrymple in 1804 and 1830? Another view, From CuriousFox
Mary TRACEY was described as INFAMOUS - Dublin | |
Was Henry Brown a convict? I was asked this by on Thursday, 9 April, 2009 and replied He was wed at Launceston in 1831 To the people who went free to Tasmania, the convicts were a very important source of labour - which only cost the food and clothing and shelter - they worked without being paid a wage, were not allowed to object, and if they ran away were ruthlessly hunted. By the time Melbourne was being started in 1839, with labourers being brought from England because they did not want to be a convict employment centre, Launceston was an established town, with a Cricket team. By 1841 they were having matches against a team from Melbourne, and showing off their town, welcoming the tourists.
Use Website Convicts permission to marry - all convicts were under supervision, and getting married was a legal thing so they needed permission to do so.
Searching the Tasmanian Archives, I found Henry Brown, Number 247, came on the Dromedary 1820, charged at Middlesex July 1819, sentenced to 7 years, on 9 Aug 1826 there was an assault charge .... and he was to appear at the Criminal Court (perhaps against Abraham Aaron). Only 2 lines of writing on the quarter page, hard to read.
