Hi All
This is the index page to the Latrobe Convict Narratives which gives
you access to Robert Marsh's account as well as Samuel Snow's. All
excellent reading to gain an insight to the harsh realities of convict
life.

Subject: [Patriots-War] Great narrative!
Signed on looking for my Alson OWEN and David ALLEN who took part.
I found
the following site which was of great interest and is quite a gem.
It
mentions many convicts by name and detail. It also mentions that
upon
arrival they were asked pertinent info re: age, place of birth,
occupation,
parents & siblings' names, etc.
I would certainly like to know where this info is available.
Through this
report I've disproved data reported in 2 other reputable
locations.
It of
course creates new questions, but is decisive proof for me.
