https://content.archives.nsw.gov.au/delivery/StreamGate?dps_pid=FL19279289&dps_dvs=1780120974842~348 Letter dated 28 Sept 1831. This is a letter, which gives details of three women and their children, who arrived per Hooghley in 1831 to join their convict husbands /fathers. It is accompanied by a list of names and the clothing which they were supplied with and which was already in their possession, as sent from the Master of Hooghley, dated 22 June 1831. There are several names on this list, some of which have been crossed out, which includes Anne Kingston, with the following information: County Cork, Convict’s name: Family of Samuel Kingston, Anne Kingston, Nancy, age 24, Amelia, age 20, Lydia, age 16, Samuel, aged 13., together with a list of their clothing. Samuel had seemingly applied for his family to join him, which must have been accepted. It appears they did not come on the Hooghley ship.
