William Jellard was on a List of 40 male convicts embarked on the Brig Kangaroo for the Derwent. 13th April 1816. https://stors.tas.gov.au/CON13-1-1$init=CON13-1-1p57 No. 29, William Jellard, Marquis of Wellington, Convicted at Lancaster, Salford Q.S., 27 Apr 1814, Sentence –7 Years, trade – slater & lab. At a full Bench of Magistrates held this Morning, William Jillard, a convict (who lately came from Port Jackson in the brig Kangaroo), was charged with stealing from the dwelling house of Geo. Gatehouse, merchant in Macquarie-street, on the 1st Instant, twenty bushels of Wheat, and twenty sugee bags, the property of Mess. Kemp and Gatehouse ; also, with stealing one spade and a flat Iron from the said G. Gatehouse; and also with stealing a silk handkerchief, the property of Phoebe M'Cluckey. The Prisoner denied part of the charge; but acknowledged stealing the handkerchief; and as there was not sufficient evidence to convict the Prisoner of stealing the wheat, bags, spade, and flat iron, he was therefore acquitted of those charges; but found guilty of stealing the silk handkerchief, for which he was sentenced to work three months in the gaol gang. Hobart Town Gazette, 10 Aug 1816.
