I'm searching for Irish genealogical connections to Patrick Garland (b. circa 1825) (my great great grandfather).
Details are scant, however Patrick was transported to Tasmania (Van Diemen's Land) in March 1849. A summary of information I do have appears below:
CONVICT RECORDS
Police no.: 5516G
TRIED:
Where: Monaghan assizes
When: 5 Mar 1849
For: Highway robbery (£7 7s 6d)

Ship: London (2) (denotes second voyage)
Sailed on: 20 Dec 1850
Sailed from: Dublin
Destination: Hobart Town
Master: J. Sceales

Occupation at the time of his trial: mat maker
His mother's name was possibly Mary.
His siblings were possibly: Michael, Francis, Rose, Ann, Margaret and Bridget.
Many thanks
