Convict Notes
Ann was the wife of James Rogers from Manchester. Her crime is unrecorded, though presumed theft from a John Edge, a yarn merchant. She left Lancaster Castle to be taken to Chatham for boarding the ship, along with eight other women on the 9th August 1801. In 1806, Ann held a ticket of leave and was assigned to Peter Murphy. Ann, now free, married Irish convict Thomas McKeever (also McEver, currently unrecorded on this site) (ship- Anne 1800) at St Philips, Sydney in September 1808. In 1810 she was recorded as living and farming at Windsor with her husband and the musters between 1816 and 1825 are similar. In 1827, the couple were in court, for harbouring a female convict and a brief description of Ann is given as 'a low-sized old woman' but as there was no deliberate intent on their part, they were let off with a small fine. In 1828, the couple had moved to Patrick Plains, where Thomas was an overseer for John Howe. Ann was in court again in 1829 as her assigned servants had stolen property from her, she was recorded as living on King Street. Ann's husband, Thomas died at Pitt Town in 1836 but to date I haven't found a death record for Ann.
On Monday last, Mary Storrs, Ann Rogers, Catharine Osburne, Betty Baker, Ann Hamilton, Mary Mort, Mary Mills, Elizabeth Coulter, and Ann Chapman, female convicts, under sentence of transportation in our Castle, were removed to Chatham, in order to be put on board the Glatton, bound to New Holland.
