Biographies
Mary McMahon,per "Mary Ann"(1)in 1816,and from Dunkeld Scotland, was a twenty-eight year old weaver with several aliases. They were Johnston, Hall and Armstraham – the name used by husband Robert Armstrong when they were convicted and gaoled at Manchester in 1814 for tendering base coins in 1814.
Her conviction at Chester on 30th March 1815 of “larceny in a shop” received the death sentence-commuted to transportation for life. She went to the Parramatta Factory before being assigned to Bowman at Richmond.
She is traceable through many musters and doesn't seem to have ever been with her husband,Armstrong.
In 1822 she gave birth to a daughter Margaret Ryan, whose father was Michael - but which Michael Ryan isn't mentioned in the baptismal record.
Margaret Ryan married John Huggins, son of convict William, in the Maitland Catholic Parish in 1837.
