For anyone determined to trace their Australian roots, A Guide to Locating and Searching Family - Convict - Pioneer and Immigrant Records of Australia is an indispensable research companion that unlocks the complex world of colonial-era documentation. Volume 1 chronicles the records of New South Wales, Norfolk Island, and provides an index to convict ships from Canada, Ceylon, India, Bermuda, St. Helena, South Africa, West Indies, Mauritius, Singapore, Ireland, and immigrant ships from Germany — making it a remarkably comprehensive starting point for genealogists tackling Australia's diverse settlement history. Compiled by James McClelland through meticulous hands-on research, this volume presents a structured, methodical approach to navigating the often labyrinthine archives of Australia's convict and pioneer past. It sits within a broader series (Book No. 7) that together forms one of the most thorough self-published genealogical reference works on Australian immigration records, and its scope across multiple colonial shipping routes ensures that researchers from many national backgrounds will find their ancestral threads here — if they know where to look.
