Some Wiltshire Convicts on the Eleanor

From my old stomping grounds,
Where I have walked, cycled and camped,
Spent time in various pubs
With three generations,
Visited friends and relations,
Where I have dressed graves and gravestones
In churchyards with my mother:

Maurice Pope from South Savernake, Wootton Rivers;
George Durman and John Pound from Aldbourne, Ramsbury
Thomas Lawrence, John Orchard, John Reeves
And Henry Tombs from Wanborough;
Joseph Watts from Liddington, Wroughton;
John Legg: Hannington
Abraham Knight from Latton;
James Romain from Enford, Netheravon;
Charles Davis, Gifford North and Laban Stone from Alton Barnes.
