William Gillham, Ansty, Dprset, England
Is anyone able to shed some light on William Gillham born c 1823 who was transported to Australia for sheep stealing at Hilton in the company of William Stickland and William Mullett ? I have just acquired his transportation order and he is known as William Wiltshire aka William Gillham.
In the 1841 census, William Wiltshire aged 15 shows up in the same household as Priscilla Wiltshire aged 40 and Mary Wiltshire aged 15. And Priscilla Stickland marries John Wiltshire Gillam in Hilton Parish on 23 April 1821. No record of the birth of William but there is a bp. record for Mary in 1824. Any information gratefully accepted. TIA. Mary in Oz
