	There are loads of online databases. Just put 'Convicts' +Australia into Google but it helps if you know whereabouts in Australia they were sent and when? You need to find the name of the ship they were transported out on. Cheers, Horatia

Member Since: February 2006 Posts: 2 Send Message	Does anyone know where or even if there are records detailing english criminals who were sentenced to Transportation to Australia during the 1800's? Online records preferably, I hate wading through paper records. Thanks
