Textual Records - (manuscript) - Scope and ContentThe author of this journal is unknown but internal references indicate that it was written by one of the soldiers belonging to the military detachment on board. The Commodore Hayes, carrying 219 convicts, left England on 26 April 1823 but the journal does not begin until 22 May. It concludes on 30 August shortly after the ship arrived in Sydney, having previously landed the convicts in Hobart. There appears to be several pages missing at the end and possibly at the beginning of the journal.
