Convict Notes
Mary who used the alias Mary Williams was from Warrington. She had stolen a piece of printed cotton cloth worth ten pence, belonging to Frances Lowndes. She was already being held at Lancaster Castle prior to her trial before being taken to Ormskirk Session House for her trial and then back to Lancaster again. There is very little on Mary in New South Wales. There is a record in the Norfolk Island victualling book that says she was there from 1792 and in 1795 and was 'sick with [blank]'. Mary was recorded as passing away on the island 6th November 1795.
