Convict Records of Austraila

While researching online, I came across a pretty cool a genealogical database created from British Convict Transportation records of prisoners sent to the former penal colony of Australia covering the years 1767 to 1867. The entries give brief biographical details about each prisoner such as their name, nicknames, place of conviction, place of departure, place of arrival in Australia, age, gender, occupation and what crimes were committed. The database is searchable by surname, year and place of departure. This is may be a useful for genealogists who had ancestors sent to Australia from England and provides clues to potential records that may be found in the United Kingdom Archives. The link to the Convict Records website is https://convictrecords.com.au/ .
