Samuel James was transported for "Stealing Wool". I have conflicting dates of birth for him, Bengalmine webpage has him as 29 years old which would make him born 1805 or the Convict Death Register has him as died aged 40 in 1835 which would make his birth date 1794/5. He died at the Sydney Hospital.
