    1. [AUS-CON] MOVING CONVICTS FOR TRANSPORTATION
    2. Peter Strauss
    3. Can any lister advise me as to how a convict would be moved from Newgate Gaol to Spithead for transportation to New South Wales in 1819 please? Would they walk/march under guard, be put onto a dray or wagon? Forgive my knowledge of London geography, would they be moved by barge down the Thames? Peter Melbourne Australia
