Anti-Transportation LeagueConvict - Transportation - Hashemy - Randolph - New South Wales - Van Daemon's Land
In 1848, hostile crowds greeted the convict ships Hashemy and Randolph, convincing a reluctant British government that the days of Convict Transportation to New South Wales were over. Opposition had also grown in Van Daemon's Land, and an anti-transportation league established there attracted a huge following. We will be telling the full story of the Anti-Transportation League on this page shortly. |
