Dear Listers James MIDDLETON arrived in VDL from London with his wife Susannah and daughter, also Susannah, at some time between October 1832 and July 1835. In his early fifties, James was a moderately well-to-do engineer, his wife was perhaps a little older and their daughter about twenty. It is probable that they travelled in reasonable style and comfort but their arrival is not listed on the TAHO website. Are there any other places in which I might look for their arrival? In case it helps, James was the proprietor of 'The Hit and Miss' Hotel at Hamilton at the time of his death in 1850. Good wishes, Don Bradmore, Central Victoria.

Hi, Has anyone researching this family of Joseph FLOOD as above, broke down the brickwall as to where in Dublin, Ireland and to whom he was born, date, etc, please. I have everything I need back to his crime commited as appears in the Freemans Journal and book written by Barbara Hall re convicts per the Boddington. To my knowledge, no one has the name of his parents and Parish in Dublin, where he was born and correct date. If it is available and there is a film I can hire out from the LDS in Burnie, that would be great. Our family descends from Joseph and Ann Germaines son John FLOOD born Sydney, NSW 24 September 1797-1854. John was married to Margaret WATSON born 22 Dec 1799-1869, NSWon 25 Oct 1818 St Phillips, NSW. Their son John Thomas FLOOD, born 6 June1830-1898 at Cressy, Tas, who was married to Susannah Cox on 1st Dec, 1853 , daughter of Samuel COX and Mary Ann LUCAS was our line. John Thomas FLOOD and Susan FLOOD nee COX were the parents of our Alice Caroline Alberta FLOOD born 29 Sept 1857-1938, who married William LAING 2 June 1886-1920, our line. thanks for any help Edie McArthur

I think "Carpoi" roughly translates to "good" or "will do very well" in the Maori language.

Colonial Times (Hobart, Tas. : 1828 - 1857) Wednesday 18 May 1831 p 3 Article... tho Dallas Arms ; and on Monday he went to New Norfolk ; he was on that day overtaken by Stenhouse ... together ; Dr. Wilde went down with me to Town, I left him at the Dallas Arms, on the New Town Road. ... 3233 words ".....Sarah Crocket sworn, said, I was servant to Mr. Stallard, but was taken from that service by Mr. Mulgrave at the time Mr. Wilde was sent to gaol; I remember seeing some rings and seals in the possession of Mr. Wilde; it was one night when he slept at Mr. Stallard's, about two months ago; it was on a Wednesday or Thursday, but I don't know which; I think it was on Wednesday, but am not certain;....."

Dear Don and listers, Don, You asked for the conduct records of the convicts to Port Phillip 1803. If you look at http://search.archives.tas.gov.au/default.aspx?detail=1&type=S&id=CON31 you will see that these records date from Jan 1818. In the wisdom of TAHO and Linc Tasmania, they have redeveloped their website and access to the old "Guide to the public records of Tasmania. Section three Convict Department" can now be found on line through http://stors.tas.gov.au/au-7-0038-00120 (use Firefox Mozilla or similar, not Internet Explorer as it won't work/open properly in the latter!) If you do a search (Ctrl F) for CON 31 you will find on page 27 Chapter 7: "CONDUCT REGISTERS CONDUCT REGISTERS OF MALE CONVICTS ARRIVING IN THE CON 31 PERIOD OF THE ASSIGNMENT SYSTEM 1803-1843. 48 vols. The primary purpose of these volumes was to record the behaviour of the convict while he underwent his sentence in the colony; Lieutenant-Governor Arthur's ideal has been referred to (see Introduction), and it was begun to be put into effect in these volumes, in 1827, when Edward Cook, transported law stationer, went to the Chief Police Magistrate's residence near New Norfolk. ...for the purpose of completing a new set of Black Books (under the Superintendence of Josiah Spode Esq re Muster Master) upon a most extensive scale comprising the List of offences of 12305 prisoners with the particulars and nature of their several Offences together with the Original Offence Gaol and Hulk Reports...Memorialist remained at Humphreyville twelve Months for the before mentioned purpose & was during that period employed 14 or 15 hours a Day & very frequently on Sundays. Cook's work, therefore, consisted in entering up the new registers retrospectively; it is not always clear what records he used for the purpose, for no other sources now exist for some of the particulars recorded for convicts who arrived as early as 1806. The fact that they were entered retrospectively also explains the mistakes in chronological order which occur the more frequently the earlier the period. Not all convicts who arrived are included here, even though some of the earlier entries are completely blank except for the number, name and ship."

It's also worth remembering that in the early days of the colonies of NSW and VDL record-keeping was scrappy and inconsistent. As others have noted, VDL was part of the colony of NSW, and responsible to Sydney, where some convicts records were sent. In VDL, it was Lieut. Gov Sorell who began to keep more systematic records, from the time of his arrival in 1817. By this time quite a few of the first convicts had completed their sentences, so many details of what happened after their arrival here were lost. If they re-offended, however, some of this history re-emerges. It was Lieut. Gov. Arthur who really systematised the convict records, from the time VDL became a separate colony in 1825. But even in he first years of Arthur's rule, there is much less detail than in later years. And, of course, quite a large amount of these records has been lost in one way or another. Judy

Hello Guy, I get in to the site this way: I Google "e-resources NLA", click on the e-resources link that comes up, and arrive at this site: http://www.nla.gov.au/app/eresources/ There is a box on the top right hand side of this page where you type in your family name and the number on your NLA card. Once you've done that you're in.

Dear Don, you are right about the convicts arriving at Port Phillip on the Calcutta and then went to VDL by the Ocean and the Lady Nelson. The Calcutta stayed at Port Phillip filling the ship with timber before going on to Sydney then back to England. This was not the reason why Collins went to VDL, he had already made up his mind to leave Port Phillip as he was not prepared to set up a settlement there, lack of water etc. Their indents are with the other convicts who came later and you can view them on line through the Tasmanian Library site. The full list for the convicts who came with Collins can be found in my Land Grants and stock List 1803-1822 book. Regards from a not so warm Brisbane.

Hi Don, I found the records of one of my ancestors on microfiche, so they still exist in some form. I can't answer your second question, except that there is a large book called 'Convicts Unbound' by Marjorie Tipping that tells the story of these convicts and lists their transport as the Calcutta.
