Joseph Ridout born 1822 in Sturminster Dorset married Eleanor (Ellen) Pearcy was transported to Australia for sheep stealing in 1850. Cannot find any info on his life after that. He was transported along with James Ridout, his cousin. Have tried various Australian lines but cannot obtain death certificate or similar. Anyone know anything about obtaining this info.
