Narrative

Thomas CHATFIELD (1797 - ) was a shepherd and ploughman and lived in Maresfield, Sussex.
He was convicted at Lewes Sussex Quarter Sessions on 8th April 1831 aged 30 for stealing six pennyworth of faggots and stealing four fowls and sentenced to be transported for life but then reduced to 14 years.
Also described as 'a troublesome person.'
He left behind a wife and five children.
Transported on the William Glen Anderson he arrived at Hobart, Van Dieman's Land on the 1st November 1831
I have searched the Tasmania Records Office for details of his life and presumed death somewhere in Tasmania but without success.
His convict Number was 1295.
He appears to have been assigned to a Lieutenant Sam Hill on his arrival in Hobart.'
