	Doreen seems very clear that the crime was committed in 1800 ........... which means we're looking for someone born pre-1790 at least could that mean Old Bailey records????????

	Do you have a first name and approx year of birth? When you say 'sent' do you mean by her/his family/employers or as a Convict? If you edit your title to include the word Australia, people with more in depth knowledge of that era might be able to help.
