Lucy's family

Lucy's is 1 of 10 children born to James Bradley and Sarah Barnes who were convicts.

James had been convicted at the Old Bailey of stealing a handkerchief and Sarah of stealing 8 quart pewter pots from ‘The Plough’ Pub in Bloomsbury, London. She was only 14 at the time and perhaps got a lighter sentence because of her age.

James arrived on the convict ship Scarborough with the First Fleet. The ship left England in May 1787 and arrived at Sydney Cove eight months later in January 1788. In April 1789 he was given 25 lashes for insolence to a sentry. When his sentence expired in 1794 however he was granted an Absolute Pardon by Governor Macquarie. By then he was highly regarded as a minister of the Wesleyan Church. He also taught Sunday school. He and Samuel Marsden fell out over this because he was attracting children away from the Church of England.

James received a land grant of 30 acres at Eastern Farms near Kissing Point on the Paramatta River and in 1798 gave evidence to a Government inquiry about problems facing small farmers. According to the 1800 Census he had two and a half acres under wheat and 5 acres under maize. By the following year, he had cleared a total of 15 acres and owned 3 hogs and 20 bushels of maize in store.

Nor can we count Lucy Bradley’s family as aspiring angels. Both Lucy’s father James Bradley (1764 – 1838) and her mother Sarah Barnes (1775 – 1853) were also convicts. James Bradley had been convicted at the Old Bailey of stealing a handkerchief valued at 1-2 shillings around 1785.

And Sarah Barnes had been convicted in the same court in 1790, as a 14-year old, of stealing 8 quart pewter pots valued at 8 shillings and 5 pint pewter pots valued at 2 shillings from ‘The Plough’ Pub in Bloomsbury.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

James, the elder son, married Lucy Bradley on 7 April 1814 and became a farmer in the Bathurst district. Lucy was the eldest daughter of First Fleeter convict James Bradley and his wife, Sarah Barnes, of Kissing Point.

Quoted from Founders of Australia by Mollie Gillen.

BRADLEY, James (c 1764-1838). James Bradley was late of the Liberty of the Rolls (Chancery Lane) but it was in Kensington that he stole a "white linen handkerchief with a purple border of the value of two shillings" from Robert Thornton on 8 June 1785. At the Old Bailey on 29 June he was sentenced to seven years transportation and sent, age given as 21, to the Ceres hulk from which he was transferred to the Juliana hulk on 13 January 1787 and thence to Portsmouth for embarkation on Scarborough on 27 February 1787. It is clear from other colonial records that the Scarborough James Bradley was the man who lived to reach NSW (see James Bradley, Alexander). Arrived Australia on 'Scarborough' of 1st Fleet . The Scarborough departed Plymouth, England on 13 May 1787 . She was on charter to British Government as a transport, to convey convicts to Botany Bay, New South Wales. She was under the command of Capt. John Marshall . The Scarborough arrived at Botany Bay on 20 January 1788, but as the bay was deemed unsuitable for settlement - the Fleet moved on to Sydney Cove, in Port Jackson arriving on 26 January 1788.
