Biographies

Maria (Mariah) Hines: Born 1789. Baptised 12 April 1789, West Bromich, Staffordshire (now Warwickshire), England.

In 1805 aged 16 years was charged with burglary and judged not guilty. On 24 March 1806, Mariah and Catherine are both arrested. Catherine is ‘discharged by proclamation’, however, Mariah convicted of stealing printed cotton from a house was sentenced to transportation for seven years. The Sheriff’s Cravings and Gaolers’ Bills show Mariah stayed in the County Gaol until it was time to transfer her to the convict ship ‘Sydney Cove.

Mariah married convict John Haywood in December 1807 in Parramatta. Servitude freed both. John was also a convict from Warwick. The 1828 census shows them as shopkeepers. and with them are their two sons John and William plus their nephew James (Hines) Richards, son of Phoebe. The only personal details found since then is a record of Mariah’s death on 14 April 1845, in Parramatta, aged 55years. Their son William Haywood married Harriet Roberts, 22nd September 1829 officiated by Reverend Samuel Marsden.

I am a direct descendant of John Riley and Catherine Hines Lattimore, down though their son John, to Edward(1), Edward (2), Amos, and Don.


The HINES Story: Three sisters from Warwickshire came to Australia as convicts.
Phoebe Hines born 1786, Mariah Hines born 1789, and Catherine Hines (aka Lattimore) born 1792 were three of seven children born to William and Dinah Hines in Birmingham, Warwickshire. The other three children were Martha (b.1784), William (b.1795) and Nancy (b. 1799). It is rumoured that William Hines (Snr) and William Hines (Jnr) both came out as convicts too, but I have not yet found the proof that the two Williams listed are ours. The three Hines girls were before the courts a few times before being transported.

A clerk destroyed the records of trials on the Midland Circuit, which includes Warwick, in the 19th century and none exist before 1860.4 The only record of the trials is the entries found in the Warwick Criminal Registers.
