While I applaud any efforts made towards documenting our convicts' lives, it took me some searching on this website to find any mention of the records held by the Tasmanian Archives.  The link should have a prominent place on their homepage.

The original Tasmanian convict documents are indexed and digitised at http://portal.archives.tas.gov.au/menu.aspx?search=11
