Statement of John Green, Clerk of Emu Plains Establishment, 2 June 1827, relating to female convicts sent to the government Agricultural Establishment at Emu Plains in 1822-23, Colonial Office Records, CO 210/182, p. 328 http://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-987061240: Harriott Marsh per Wellington Recd May 1st Dischd 14th May 1823 to the Factory with child afterwards married Bernard Hoe, being one of the men she had lived with on the plains. The History of this woman whilst living on the plains with her Husband is too Horrid to repeat, a short time ago she left her husband to live a prostitute. She had a Husband and three children alive in England. Accounts of prostitution at Emu Plains are refuted at: Report of the Commissioners of Enquiry, 7 Sepr 1825 in Watson, Frederick & Chapman, Peter & Australia, Historical records of Australia, vol XI, page 814 onwards, http://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-475003792.
