The Convict Transportation Registers Quote from Ancestry: Over the course of several days in January, 1788, 11 ships from the British First Fleet delivered their cargo of 732 British, North American, West Indian and African convicts to Sydney Cove. As the prisoners disembarked, they knew there was little chance of seeing their homeland or loved ones again. Were your ancestors on board? On Ancestry now. Regards Jill
