Guide - arrived in WA in 1855 SOURCES

This ship sailed from Calcutta in India and arrived in Fremantle in the Swan River Colony on January 9, 1855 with 16 passengers and 6 convicts [Erickson].

The convicts were all soldiers and sailors who had been found guilty by Court Martial, possibly all in India, and sentenced to transportation.

There were no deaths recorded on the convict shipping and description lists and 6 convict numbers were assigned for the voyage ranging from (3212 to 3217).

There were no pensioner guards among the 16 passengers who accompanied the convicts on their journey to Western Australia.

The following list is an alphabetically sorted list of the names associated with each of the 6 convict numbers assigned to this voyage. The comments field gives alternative names attributed to the various convicts. They are not only spelling variations, but alternative names used in later life or in subsequent re-convictions. The age quoted seems to refer to the age of the convict when the passenger list was created.
