Did your ancestral convicts return to their families..
maybe they are listed in the following pages...
They include names, sometimes place returned to, sometimes relationship, occupation/trade...
The following posts are a combination of those who returned convicts assigned to them, convicts who were assigned, and others who were transferred from one situation to another.
You can click on postings to enlarge or go to the original post, link highlighted.
If you find a connection, we would love to hear their story.
New South Wales Government Gazette (Sydney, NSW : 1832 - 1900), Wednesday 11 September 1833 (No.8) http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article230390698
You can possibly trace your familiar convict name via TROVE and also through one of my favourite sites
CONVICT RECORDS
https://convictrecords.com.au
e.g. Thomas Arkell Onboard Neptune, Scarborough and Surprize December, 1789 arriving at New South Wales
If you are able to add details about your convict ancestors to this site,
it may help you to perhaps find more descendants.
This page will explain the criteria for having convicts on a property.
