Robert J. Hughes

I have a uncle named Robert J. Hughes, born in 1886 in London City. In the
1901 census of Middlesex he is 15 years old and in Feltham Industrial School
for Boys, listed as a juvenile offender. Family story says he was
transported to Australia or New Zealand. Could any one please look up any
criminals from 1901 onwards and see if you can find him? He possibily
committed another offense and was shipped off as a prisoner. I am at a
brick wall with this man.

Thank you in advance.
