Hi Eleanor Go to http://www(.)records(.)nsw(.)gov(.)au/archives/indexes_online_3357.asp - remove the brackets. On there you will find links to Convicts and also to both assisted and unassisted passengers into New South Wales in the 19th Century. Also, go to http://www(.)bdm(.)nsw(.)gov(.)au/familyHistory/searchHistoricalRecords.htm for NSW BDM. Choose 'Search Now' and then choose Births and Deaths or Marriages. Good Luck David
