Convict Notes
John Stacey, and William Stacey, his brother, for stealing about four bushels of wheat in the chaff, from John Savill, who stated that about the month of Oct. 1831, he lost about a sack of undressed wheat. The leap of the barn was raised and the wheat let out. The prisoners were acquitted, the accomplice's evidence not being sufficiently corroborated. The two Staceys were again indicted for stealing six ducks from Jabez Gibson, of Saffron Walden. The Jury returned a verdict of guilty, and John Stacey, against whom a former conviction had been proved, was sentenced to seven years transportation, William, 12 months hard labour. Essex Standard, 20 April 1833.
John had a relationship with Mary Ann Rogers (Holdsworth) they had several children. John and Mary Ann never married as John was still married to Martha Duberry, in England, and had 5 children.
