In the 17th century transportation was carried out at the expense of the convicts or the shipowners. The&nbsp;Transportation Act 1717&nbsp;allowed courts to sentence convicts to seven years' transportation to America. In 1720, an extension authorised payments by&nbsp;the Crown&nbsp;to merchants contracted to take the convicts to America. The Transportation Act made returning from transportation a&nbsp;capital offence.<sup style="line-height: 1; unicode-bidi: isolate; white-space: nowrap; font-size: 14px;">[49]</sup><sup style="line-height: 1; unicode-bidi: isolate; white-space: nowrap; font-size: 14px;">[55]</sup>&nbsp;The number of convicts transported to North America is not verified -&nbsp;John Dunmore Lang&nbsp;has estimated 50,000, and&nbsp;Thomas Keneally&nbsp;has proposed 120,000.

The remaining British colonies (in what is now Canada) were regarded as unsuitable for various reasons, including the possibility that transportation might increase dissatisfaction with British rule among settlers and/or the possibility of&nbsp;annexation by the United States&nbsp;&ndash; as well as the ease with which prisoners could escape across the border.</p></line></content><metadataxml> CREA 2018-11-29 03:08:08.696 Origin: u

She had thrown a silver tankard at her stepfather. Her stepfather had died. Her mother had married his brother. Elizabeth being more resolute than Hamlet in Hamlet&#39;s predicament had acted with greater resolution and fallen into discrace because of this act. She had no money for the passage to the colonies. Being a resolute girl she took out papers of indenture to a phosphorous family bound for Maryland. It must have lasted five or six years. Elizabeth became one of those numerous indentured servants from who a great respectable families of the South descended. About half a century before this incident occured in the history of Scotch Irish immigration, a great number of Jacksons were settled in Ulster. Some Jacksons had got land and raised to power. In the first two decade&#39;s of the 18th century the Hor. Richard Jackson held lands from Irish Society of London. He had grown rich and influential in politics. The Society didn&#39;t like it. They raised his fees. Richard Jackson in turn raised his tenants fees. The worthy farmers of Coleraine County, London felt the sting of high rents and decided to do something about it. Elizabeth took passage for America on the same ship as John Jackson. John fell in love with her and wanted to marry her at sea. John and Elizabeth were betrothed for seven years and finally married in Cecil County, Maryland July 4, 1755. They had eight children; George, Edward, Jonathan (he married Julia and one of their sons was Thomas Jonathan &quot;Stonewall&quot; Jackson. He was a Lt. General for the Confederate States of America), Elizabeth, Sophia, Mary, Samuel and Henry. My Gt Gt Grandmother was Mary Ann &quot;Polly&quot; Jackson Steen and 2nd cousin to &quot;Stonewall&quot;. Mary Ann Jackson married William Boneparte Steen. William was killed during the last year of the Civil War at his home by night riders near Mill Creek, monroe County, KY. He was shot down due to mistaken identity by his own men. Just as &quot;Stonewall&quot; was shot down by his own men due to mistaken identity. They say Elizabeth could load and fire a musket as cooly as a trained soldier.
