Notes
a. Note:   There were several natives of the Russian Baltic provinces amongst the convicts. Nisson or Nissen Jacobson was born about 1794 in Libava (Latvia), which then was within the Russian Empire. Ethnically he was rather Scandinavian or Lettish. His trade was recorded as �sigar manufacturer�. Having been arrested in 1817 in London for possession of a forged banknote and sentenced to 14 years of exile, he arrived in Tasmania on 11 June 1818 on the "Lady Castlereagh" ship. Possibly, he was one of those Russian-speakers, who were met but not named by captain Lazarev in Hobart in 1823 apart from Potocki. Jacobson worked for Mrs. Humphrey and a case of his insolent behavior towards her was even investigated by the magistrate. He had had no other infringements and in 1826 he was conditionally pardoned and in 1831 fully released. (Text from "Russian Convicts in Australia" by Vladimir Kroupnik found thanks to Mary Cotter [marycotter001@@yahoo.com.au]) Nisan was a sugar manufacturer and was convicted of forgery in London in April 1817. He was 5'6" tall, had hazel eyes, black hair, and dark ruddy complexion and was very well behaved according to the gaol report. He was sentenced to 14 years and sent to Van Diemen's Land on the Lady Castlereagh in 1818 where he was assigned to the household of Mr & Mrs Humphreys. Over the next few years he was charged several times with misconduct by Mrs Humphreys but was found not guilty. (Source: Frances Hudson) Nisson or Nison Jacobson, a Russian born Jew. It is believed he was born in the Black Sea region in 1793. He was arrested at Leitrim, North West Ireland. Nisson was charged with forgery and tried in London in 1817. He arrived in Van Diemens Land aboard the "Lady Castlereigh" (Source: "From Chains to Freedom" by Thais Mason)
