And were sent to the British Colonies of New South Wales or Van Diemens Land from which the greater number never returned but died in exile ten thousand miles from their native land.

They had to eat raw turnips and sometimes the pig share. You would pay 3s for a rabbit and 3s for a loaf of bread. Sickness came after the famine and hundreds emigrated to America and many died.
