I am the great great grand daughter of Vinzencio Buccheri (Malta) Mary Foley (Ireland) both convicts.  The name Buccheri has been spelt in many ways including Buccarry, Buccarey, Buckhardi, Buccarez and Buccharia.   Vinzencio and Mary had 8 children but not all survived.  I have traced the family in Australia, completing 6  generations and 20 years of research.  I am quite happy to pass on information.   Dot Anderson nee Irwin.
