John Campbell & Charlotte Dawson

Trials of Life and Law


This book tells the story of two people who came to Australia in the 1820s. John Campbell, a victim of the Highland clearances in Sutherland, Scotland, emigrated to Van Diemen’s Land in search of a better life. Charlotte Dawson, a petty thief from Lincolnshire, England, was tried, convicted and sentenced to seven years transportation to New South Wales.

The story follows John and Charlotte from cradle to grave, giving us a view of the conditions under which they lived, and consequently the trials and tribulations they endured. Their lives are influenced both beneficially and adversely by people they meet. Their marriage is fraught with unfortunate incidents and separation.

John and Charlotte represent the thousands of immigrants and convicts who settled in Australia in the first half of the 19th century. Ordinary people, subject to the law, they often stumbled into circumstances which led to tragic consequences.

This book therefore is not only a biographical account but also an historical sketch of early Australia as experienced through the lives of a free settler and a convict. Some aspects of the story are raw and confronting, but the facts are a part of that early Australian history and their lives.

Notes for John CAMPBELL:
The birth date of John Campbell is equivocal. His marriage registration on 7 October 1831 gives his age as 33 which would give him a birth date between 7 October 1797 and 6 October 1798. Other records suggest a date between 12 February 1798 and 6 October 1798. There are several births for a John Campbell in the parish records for Golspie and Rogart. The one that appears to be our John Campbell in National Records of Scotland, Births and Christenings, is Golspie Parish, OPR 051/00 0020 0035 born 5 Sep 1798 in Aberscross. Unfortunately these records lack detail, in particular the mother's name in most cases.
Arrived in Hobart Tasmania on the "Greenock" from Leith, Scotland, in November
1823. Left Tasmania for Sydney in 1828 or early 1829. Possible voyage to New South Wales was on the "Greenock" arriving Sydney, 2 Mar 1828 ( Archives Authority of New South Wales: Colonial Secretary: Reports of Vessels Arrived, 18---AO Reel 1263: Year 1828) or the "Henry" (SRNSW: NRS 905, Colonial Secretary's Correspondence 1832 -1842, Letter 40/1168, [4/2486.2], Reel 1841)

Notes for Sarah Elizabeth CAMPBELL:
On 24 October 1857 Sarah Campbell at the age of 15 years gave birth to an
illegitimate child named Angus Campbell. The father was Dugald McGregor.
IN RE: McGREGOR.
This was an appeal against a conviction by the Raymond Terrace Bench, in an
affiliation case. Mr. Chambers appeared for the appellant, and Mr. Ellis for the
respondent. This was a case tried before the Raymond Terrace Bench, in which one
Dugald MacGregor was charged by one Sarah Campbell with being the father of an
illegitimate child. Dugald McGregor was convicted, and adjudged to pay a weekly
maintenance of 10s. from the birth of the child - the 24th October, 1857. Mr. Chambers said the order was illegal. The magistrate first had no power under the act to grant retrospective payment, and secondly they had no power to order immediate payment of costs, or imprisonment in default of payment. The Chairman concurred in the first objection, but declined making an order. (The Sydney Morning Herald, Monday, 15 February 1858, p2)
MAINTENANCE. - Dougal McGregor was charged at the Court House, East Maitland, on Tuesday, by Sarah Campbell with refusing to maintain her illegitimate child. From the evidence, it appeared that in February, 1857 (sic), an order had been made by the Court for the defendant to pay 7s. weekly, in advance, for the support of the child; this sum was paid up to the 10th of last February; complainant now sued for future maintenance. The bench ordered 5s. a week to be paid in advance from this date, with professional costs of £1 1s., and court costs. (The Maitland Mercury and Hunter River Gazette, Thursday, 31 May 1860, p2)

Notes for Samuel Thomas BEBB:
Sydney Morning Herald 18 Jan 1904
BATHING FATALITY.
A party, comprising Alfred Wray and his
son Frederick, Charles Campbell, and Samuel
Bebb, were bathing ' at Woronora,' George's
River, three miles abovo Como, yesterday,
when suddenly young Wray, who is 13 years of
age, got out of his depth and called out to his
father for assistance. Mr. Wray endeavoured
lo reach him, but being unable to swim failed
to do so. Bebb. who was a strong swimmer,
started off to the boy's rescue, but the plucky
follow was apparently seized with cramp, and
w|thin a second or two disappeared. He rose
to the surface, and was grasped by Campbell,
who, however, became so exhausted that he
had to abandon the effort to get him ashore.
Three men in a boat who had witnessed the
occurrence then rowed to the spot, and diving
into the water succeeded in rescuing the boy.
All attempts to recover the body of Bebb
were, however, unavailing. The deceased was
a frenchpolisher, residing at Frederick-street,
St. Peters

disappeared, and was removed to the Como Hotel.
