"William Grantham, labourer of Cottingham, be transported to one of His Majesty's plantations or colonies abroad for the term of seven years from this sessions, the said William Grantham having been found guilty of stealing nine dead ducks and one fowl."
A report in the Hull Advertiser on the 10th April 1831 stated that:
"Grantham appeared to be connected with a set of people in the habit of taking poultry and disposing of it to Hull agents, and in the hope of breaking up a gang at Cottingham who carried out these operations on such a scale as to render it impossible to keep poultry in the neighbourhood he was sentenced to seven years transportation."
He was convicted at York on the 4th April 1831, and was transported on the ship "Elizabeth"
which left London on the 7th October 1831 with 220 male convicts on board, and arrived in Tasmania on the 14th February 1832. The Tasmanian convict records state that he was transported for "Stealing 10 Fowls, Gaol Report - Character and Disposition Bad, imprisoned before, Hulk Report - orderly, married 2 Children - This offence 6 months Easter He is described as a gardener, aged 34 years, 5'8" tall, dark complexion, dark brown hair including thin whiskers, narrow visage, low wrinkled forehead, dark brown eyebrows and hazel eyes, long nose with a rise on the bridge, wide mouth, long projecting chin, and lame in his right leg. His conduct in Tasmania is described as follows:
June 4 1834, Swanston / Insolence to his master and saying that he would rather be sent in to the Governor to be sen[tenced] and kept to hard labour for 3 Months and then to be assigned to the interior / APM / New Commissioner NM/

September 27th 1837 Misconduct in being in the town contrary to orders, repts., HBJ.
He somehow managed to return to Cottingham and was buried there on the 15th of December 1869. There is a reference to his capture for the offence in the Treasurers records which states that a William Spenceley was paid the sum of £1-17-1d, his costs for apprehending William Grantham charged with Felony. 26
