Index to Departures 1817 - 1867

Records of people departing were not routinely or comprehensively kept at Tasmanian ports, although for some periods such as the 1850s such records are fairly complete. This index covers most available records before 1860 and some beyond that date, and it is being added to gradually. Generally these records are 'one line' register entries which are fully transcribed into this index. Examples of the content and format of the indexed records.
