Index to Tasmanian Convicts This comprehensive index of all convicts transported to Tasmania and those who were convicted (through the convict system) in the colony was created by indexing all original records we hold from the beginning of transportation in 1804 until 1853 when transportation ceased. The latest entry in the database for the locally convicted convicts is 1893. About 76,000 people are indexed. Tasmania's convict records are part of the Memory of the World and can be viewed online.Convict Search Family Name All Words Exact Word Boolean Query Given Name(s) All Words Exact Word Remarks Ship Name Date of Arrival Most of our convict records are available online, linked from this index.
