TRANSCRIBER’S NOTES: There is no exact match for convict by the name of MARY FOY in the pre-1821 convict records, other than a much earlier convict who arrived per the Lady Juliana (1790). The MARY FOY in this record may have been using an alias/married name. The lack of a ship name in the original gaol admission record increases the difficulty of making a positive identification. Further research required.
