Any final questions for Hamish? Please tweet in now. #dhist
got to leave the virtual world of transportation for the toddler tea-table, sorry to miss reminder of questions at #dhist
81% of women convicts were marrying other convicts. Women are very highly selective, i.e. educated, tall men chosen #dhist
those who came up against the harsh end of the transportation system were more likely to be reconvicted #dhist
Now trying to see what happens to convicts after being pardoned. To follow their lives & see when they died. Recidivism rates of 18% #dhist
@IHRDigHist Would like to know if that's something that the digital methods made clear… #dhist
There are oscillations in charges against convicts which vary over time They relate to labour shortages. When shortages, less charges #dhist
Excellent point! RT @IHRDigHist punishment records probably more a product of labour market actualities than convict behaviour #dhist

Project shows different levels of flogging depending on work. Where labour in demand there is less flogging. #dhist
Convict David Gow took a very convoluted route through the different stages of the convict system - was he typical? #dhist
Project has transcribed 4% of the records. From that know that there are 660 000 lines of text in total. #dhist
All punishments had to be given by Magistrates and so are recorded making good record linkage. #dhist
interesting future project would be to match lifes of non-transported siblings against those of their sibling convicts #dhist
Idents took place before landing in the Master's cabin to prevent them from being influenced by those there esp for occupation. #dhist

Idents were records made at time of arrival incl height, age, occupation, native place, etc incl statement of family & circumstances. #dhist
Hygiene measures of washing on ship kept diarrhoea & dysentery down for men but not emale. Prime reason was children on female ships #dhist
RT @IHRDigProjects: Digital History seminar going live now: http://t.co/iLPSYoGr #News #dhist
poor hygiene, rather than defiency diseases, responisble for high female death rates on voyage #dhist
Female death rates drop very quickly after arrival in Van Dieman's land. This shows basic health systems are in place well before UK. #dhist
Women's death rates higher than men on voyage & peaked at end of voyage particularly for women who travelled furthest in UK to ships. #dhist
No evidence that transportation decreased life-expectancy for men. Indeed evidence that may have extended life. #dhist
could transportation have extended life expectancy?! #dhist
Findings - Death rates for men & women. High point is at end of voyage & in first month or two after arrival. Dif from slave voyages #dhist
Five questions - (5) Can useful info be provided for the heritage tourism industry? #dhist
Five questions - (4) Can useful info be transmitted to the descendants of convicts? #dhist
Five questions - (3) What can be learnt of efficacy of various penal policies? #dhist
