Settlement Examination - William Andrew b1793
Monday, 29 November 2010 03:28 pm.
From the evidence of his birth place, parents’ abode, father’s death date and children’s names, I am confident that this William Andrew(s) is the younger brother of my ggg-grandfather James Andrew.
From the evidence of their mother’s will (“to my son William Andrew currently under sentence of transportation”) and the occupation of School Master given in transportation records, I am reasonably confident that this man is that William Andrew(s) who was found guily of larceny on 21st July 1838 and transported to Van Diemen’s Land.
The original document has no paragraph breaks; for clarity I have inserted paragraph breaks at every change of abode.
