Consequently, an Act of Parliament was passed in 1718 'for the more effectual transportation of felons', and the first contract between the Treasury and a London agent was established in the same year with Jonathan Forward, a London merchant (as named in the present document). The 66 convicts, of whom apparently 29 were women would have been transported to Carolina or Virginia. The ship Anne had been a slaver from 1717 to 1720, and conditions on board would have been miserable (See Walter Blumenthal, Brides from Bridewell, 1962, pages 19-25). The present document would originally have been accompanied by a certificate containing the lists of prisoners to be taken from Newgate. (1)
