Lost a convict or wondered if there were any in your family?
These lists have an amazing amount of detail... they include name,
name of the ship they arrived on, age, home town/city, occupation,
height, complexion, hair colour, eye colour, tattoos if any, where
escaped from and when.. sometimes more, sometimes less.
