HEADLINES OF OLD


Convicts assigned and transferred.. July 1832… (the recent post was for May 1832.. )

Trove Tuesday 20th Oct 2020. These entries include the date of arrival, name, ship, occupation .. person assigned to and place. They sometimes include multiple abilities of the convicts… e.g. “ploughs, reaps, sows” … “ postillion and spades man”

A great benefit when trying to trace your convict ancestor or to simply follow the trail of a name of interest.

Feel free to share… the title is the link.
