Led by band music, as if in joy, seven twelve-person carriages departed Frome, Wiltshire, on the night of Monday, March 21st 1831. To unburden the surrounding parishes Poor Law coffers, 85 families, many young and destitute, filled the black, horse drawn coaches as the unlikely procession headed towards the port of Bristol and their shipping overseas.
