Subject: [AUS-CON] GRESTY - Convict look-up please!!

Hi Listers,

I have a convict who arrived in W. Australia on the Sultana 1859, convicted
for larceny at the Chester Assises, England, 1857 and sentenced to 4 years.
He was William GRESTY, b. 1826, unmarried gardener, semi. lit. Ticket of
Leave 08-09-1859 Guildford. EXP given as 6. 1861.

My problem is that I cannot trace him after this and, as I live a long way
from the City and do not have access to the main Libraries, I was wondering
if some kind person could do a look-up for me or guide me as to where I
might find more information 'on the net.'

Thanking you in anticipation.

Bernie GRESTY
W. Australia
