  • Prison Hulk Register - what does it say?

    I'm trying to work out what it says for Joseph Pitman, number 6082 towards the bottom of the left-hand column http://search.ancestry.co.uk/iexec?h...rc=&pid=177860. Can anyone help, please?

    Most of what is in the box is a continuation of the comments on the chap in the line above I think but three words refer to Joseph. "Bad Connex.. Orderly". Looking at other entries higher up the page I think the second word may be a shortened form of connexions.

      I'd agree with Judith that much of the comments are from the line above.

      .... Very worst ????/ Escaped Gaol and stole a Horse to ride away.

        Thanks Judith and Gwyn. At first I thought several lines applied to Joseph, but looking again in the light of what you say, I think you're both right. I'm not sure what "bad connexions" are, unless it means he has undesirable friends, which seems quite likely on a convict hulk!
