February 1700:
CARAWIN, William - Reprieved for transportation.
From Leichestershire [ England ? ].
This says to me that some gentleman from Leichestershire was released on condition that he would go to The Colonies. The Colonies is a very broad term and there is no proof that William ever got to the ship that was to transport him. Kitty Humphries - Contributed, February, 1999.
