This ship sailed from Madras in India and arrived in Fremantle in the Swan River Colony on
November 19, 1859 with 1 convict [Erickson].
The convict was a soldier who had been found guilty by Court Martial in India and sentenced to
transportation.
There were no deaths recorded on the convict shipping and description lists and one convict
number was assigned for the voyage (5570).
There were no pensioner guards or passengers accompanying the convict on his journey to Western
Australia.
The following list gives the name and trial details of the prisoner whose convict number was
assigned on this voyage. Where applicable, 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.
