Go to http://www.nationalarchives.ie/topics/transportation/search01.html I also did a Google search for Irish Convicts Transported and there seemed to be several other possible online sources. I found one of my ancestors this way. John Dodds (San Francisco- sunny and unusually warm in the middle of early winter!!?) ----- Original Message ----- , and search for your convict.

Hi Judith There is a book available ""Barefoot and Pregnant?" by Trevor McClaughlin that lists the Irish Famine Orphans who arrived in Australia in 1848, 1849 and 1850. An unfortunate title!!
