Sophia Lovell

Sophia, a 21-year-old servant from Cambridgeshire, England arrived aboard the Diana in May 1833 convicted of stealing reaping hooks. We follow her life through her early assignments and her marriage to fellow convict, Alexander Munro, who was destined to become the first mayor of Singleton with Sophia by his side.
