George Targett was tried along with his brother, James, who was also onboard, for Housebreaking. George Targett died in the General Hospital, Sydney on the 30/12/1839 (Ancestry Convict Indent states 1839 but the ship arrived 18/12/1838 and given there are no physical details on the Indent, most likely the date is 1838).
