Ann Unwin, was apprehended by a constable on Sunday, 28th October 1827, in the house of one Davis, a tailor. She was assigned from the Female Factory, to one Ambrose Bryant, who, however, as the woman was at large, would not admit it, urging that she was assigned to his wife, (Ann Lantaff) who is also a Prisoner of the Crown, but with whom Bryant had not cohabited for some months back. This was a case involving a double breach of Colonial Law and the Bench deemed it therefore expedient to send for Mrs Bryant. She stated her husband had left her, incumbered with the maintenance of four small children: John b: 1817; Harriet b: 1822 m Samuel Stapleton 1834 d:1891; Charles Ambrose b: 1824 and Mary Ann b: 1827, also (Elizabeth b: 1819 d: 1822), whom she supported by her labour at the washtub. That subsequntly to the separation, the prisoner, Ann Unwin, was assigned to the service of A. Bryant. That for her own part, the unfortunate circumstances under which she (Mrs Bryant) was placed, precluded even the probability that the prisoner had been assigned to her service. With immediate reference to her own peculiar circumstances, Mrs Bryant made a moving appeal to their worships on behalf of her little ones, to whom she hoped to be suffered still to act the part of a mother, as she had ever done. The Chief Constable gave her an excellent character. The Bench viewing Mrs Bryant's case in a favourable light, promised to interfere in her behalf with the Governor, but consigned the prisoner, Mary Unwin, to the 3rd Class in the Factory.
