My Great Great Grandmother, Elizabeth Bumpstead, found herself in Camden
Town in 1830 with one son and four daughters, the eldest of whom was my
Great Grandmother Mary, then 14 years old. One year earlier, her elder son
William [presumably the family breadwinner] had been sentenced to
Transportation to van Dieman’s Land. Whether Elizabeth was simply running
short of funds or had it in her mind to join her son on the other side of
the world, on 24th February, 1830 she "entered the
Black Cap public house in Camden Town, kept by one Edmund Butt. Whilst
on the premises”, it was alleged, "she took four pewter pots and hid them in
the petticoat beneath her apron.. She left the premises, unobserved by Mr
Butt and went on to the Wheat Sheaf public house, kept by James Scull. There
she took another pewter pot, which she added to the collection in her
petticoat". On 15th April, 1830, Elizabeth Bumpstead was tried at the Old
Bailey for Theft - Simple Grand Larceny - 4 pewter pots, value 2s. 6d., the
goods of Edward Butt , and 1 pewter pot, value 1s. 6d., the goods of James
Scull - and found GUILTY.. Her sentence was – Transportation for Seven
Years. And so, she and her children joined William in Hobart Town. **+
