That looks possible, thanks. The original compiler of the hand-written cards used the whole word "Southland" sometimes, so Westland might be right. My NZ geography isn't very detailed, I'm afraid.

This was fairly common in various states of the US in the early 20th century, I have even seen it as a throwaway line in old movies. It applied to all marriages, nothing to do with consanguinity. It...

Yes, I did try browsing Chatham, of course, but only found barracks and military hospitals. Somewhere I read that all the hulks were under Woolwich, and I found one, but not the one I wanted.

But ... since he wasn't a "lifer", pardons shouldn't come into it. There should only be Ticket of Leave and Expiration of Sentence / Free Certiicate. But his timeline still looks reasonable, I think.

Great stuff! That expiration of sentence was in the paper of 28 Aug 1852, which matches the date of the Free Cert 21 Aug 1850-something. So I think that hard-to-read date must be 1852.
