Donal Report 27 Nov 2007 19:00

Dennis although only 14 years of age was convicted and transported to Botany Bay, his crime "Being a United Irishman".
His mothers petition to Marquis Cornwallis that her son was innocent was totally ignored.
Can anyone offer any help ?? did Dennis survive the sea voyage, did he marry and are there any living descendants.
