HI Mat The Indent for those early ships was made up in England and not on arrival. The convicts listed may or may not have actually arrived - actually some may not have sailed and may have been replaced by others not listed on any Indent. It may be difficult to construct a list of those who actually arrived given the first muster taken was some years after the arrival on those in 1791. I have gathered information on those who may not be listed but who received a pardon of some description. No list available will be correct in every respect. Are you after someone in particular?
