 Convict Ships

Ships List and Year of Arrival

 

 

 
 

Home

Most of the following convict ships transported felons who would later be assigned or settle in the Hunter River region. It is not a complete list of all convict transports. 

Search the database from the button above or select from the blue links below to find out more about convicts arriving on that ship.

For ease of use in the database, only the ship name and year of arrival is needed - e.g 'Ocean 2 1818' will not return any hits. 'Ocean 1818' will return the information available.

If a convict of interest is located by searching the ship, there may also be more information by entering the name only in the search field. eg. 'Active 1791' in the ship field, gives 1 return - John Tucker senior. However a further search for 'Tucker' in the surname field results in 60 - 70 references.

Ships in Red (also) carried female prisoners

Ships in Blue are a direct link to a list of Convicts who were later sent to the Hunter region

Ships in Green are a Link to Surgeon's Journals or information about the voyage
