Convict Notes
Catherine Jones married Thomas Radcliffe in 1831, a convict who travelled on the surrey with William Tucker. They had a daughter, Elizabeth born 1831, died 1832. Catherine died 31 Mar 1863 in Hobart, Thomas died 1865. According to her ship medical entries she does not appear to have had any children with her on board the Sovereign.
Catherine was tried at the same time as her sister, Elizabeth, for the same crime and they were sent away together on the 'Sovereign' on 14 July 1827 and arrived in Hobart on the 20th November 1827. Catherine married another convict, Thomas Radcliffe on 17th Jan 1831.
I believe Catherine Jones (b) 1792 in Wales brought with her an infant also Catherine Jones (b) 1827. I don't know anymore about Catherine the mother but Catherine the child married a Phillip Culling in 1850 but he left Catherine and married another woman in Victoria, he was a convict also. Catherine then made her life with another convict called William Head, their children were born in Hobart. Later on they moved to N.S.W. in Woolloomooloo. Catherine died 2.5.1908, I think her mother died 25.8.1851 Hobart.
