<I am researching the Selwyn family from the Newent area of Gloucestershire in particular William Selwyn 1787 who married Sarah Jenkins. They had 4 children, Esther 1810, Henry 1811 (transported to Australia and my direct ancestor), William 1814, Edwin Charles 1817 (I can find no information on Edwin) and Sarah 1819.

Sarah is the mother of 'my' convict Henry, William is his brother, Ann his sister in law and Benjamin his nephew (Benjamin's mother was Esther Selwyn)
