Can someone please tell me how I can get a full copy of a quarter sessions
report.
Will the CRO copy it and send it to me?
I think I've found Joseph BULLOCK who was transported to NSW and died there.
It's a rather odd item to find under Nominations of Game Keepers!
Joseph BULLOCK had been in trouble before; and they wanted fit labourers in
NSW.
item: Nominations of Gamekeepers - ref.QS/1/6/645-579[n.d.]
|_ Scope and Content [extract] ... Deputation Registered/ made: 20 Mar. 1790;
Certificate of prosecution by Sir Beaumont Hotham and Nathaniel Lang, at
Launceston assizes, of Joseph Bullock for breaking and entering Nathaniel
Lang's empty dwelling house at St Tudy on 29 Aug. 1789, in the daytime, and
stealing goods and monies, value 25s. 2d. Nathaniel Lang apprehended Joseph
Bullock, and, as a reward for his conviction, is discharged from all civic
duties in St Tudy. ...

Thanks.....Carol
