Convict Notes
2020, 8 July: I checked the usual official records but could not find any listing for EDWARD CHAPMAN as a prisoner aboard the Mary in 1819. He does not appear on the ship's Muster Roll (see Australia Convict Ship Muster Rolls and Related Records, 1790-1849). He is not listed on Peter Mayberry's "Irish Convicts to New South Wales 1788-1849" for the Mary. Other sites with listings for the Mary 1 / Mary 1819 also do not include an Edward Chapman, unfortunately.
Edward was born about 1778. He was Protestant & convict 7yrs when he came to NSW on MARY in 1818. He was Free by Servitude and a servant to James (Jenkins) at Darling Harbour in 1828.
