John Haywood/Hayward/Heyward. Born 1775, England. Arrived 1806 on the ship ‘Fortune’(and Alexander). Died 1853, Parramatta, NSW.
Convicted 25 March 1805 at Warwick Lent Assizes. Accused of grand larceny: Stealing boots & shoes from a ….. (unreadable).
According to Jen Willetts website https://www.jenwilletts.com/convict_ship_fortune_1806.htm you can see John on the UK Prison Hulk Registers and Letter Books, 1802-1849 – Class H.O.9; Piece 8; Source Information: Ancesry.com. I could not find him there but found him on Home Office: Convict Prison Hulks: Registers and Letter Books; Class: HO9; Piece: 5. This shows John was housed on the Hulk ‘Justitia’ and later moved to the transportation ship ‘Fortune’.
