I had a relation sent there as a prisoner many years ago 1842 to be precise he was sentenced to 7 years for stealing a lady's hat and a copper boiler, I had info of him from Australia for about 5 years and then nothing, he used to abscond, be put in chains etc, it is interesting what one finds out when doing the family tree. Yes I agree this is the best website on the net so WELCOME and when you next visit England don't forget East Anglia My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
