FAS Convict Ship 356.15 Indefatigable arrived 1812 at VDL Prosopography Index

This collection provides a complete list of convict names and sufficient biographical data to enable unambiguous identification of convicts who were disembarked from convict ship "Indefatigable" at Van Diemen's Land on 1812-10-19

This includes, where known, an estimation of the year of birth, place of birth, where and when convicted, the sentence, the date of arrival in the colony and the convict's age on arrival. The brief convict biographical data provided in this collection serves as an index into the far more extensive set of life course events which are recorded in the prosopgraphy database built by the Founders and Survivors project.

Basic details for this ship:
* ship name (as known in VDL records): Indefatigable
* sailed date : 1812-06-04 from England
* arrival date : 1812-10-19
* population (per Bateson's The Convict Ships): Embarked:200 Men ; Deaths:1 Men ; Landed:199(VDL) Men

Data for convicts listed in this collection comes from the source which has been determined by Founders and Survivors to form the "base population" for this ship. Further information as to the methodology and the linkage of multiple sources is detailed in the narrative format of the collection. The matching and linkage of additional sources about Tasmanian convict's is the subject of ongoing research. This collection may be repuplished regularly, and in additional formats and with specific user interfaces, to enable public participation in the quality of convict matching and linkage -- see for example the EXPERIMENTAL linkage.htm format for this collection.
Linkage for ships arriving at Norfolk Island and Port Philip is incomplete.

This ship's prosopography index is published in a directory named "356.15" (the ship's project id). Three three different file formats provided:
-- (default; suitable for web browsing) HTML: world wide web hypertext markup language format which provides a "narrative" view of the collection (index.htm); and
-- (structured prosopgraphy: persons and events) XML / TEIp5 : Text Encoding Initiative (version p5) XML format which provides the underlying XML database for this collection (index.xml); and
-- [Not yet available] (row/column flat) simple list of convict names in a flat file, tab delimited, suitable for Excel, Stata, SPSS or database usage (index.tab). See notes below.

本数据集收录了完整的流放者姓名列表与充足的生平信息，可精准识别1812年10月19日在范迪门地（Van Diemen's Land）从流放船“Indefatigable”号下船的所有流放者。

若信息可考，则包含流放者的出生年份估算值、出生地、定罪地点与时间、判决结果、抵达殖民地日期以及抵达时的年龄。本数据集提供的精简流放者生平信息，可作为索引，检索由“创始者与幸存者（Founders and Survivors）”项目构建的人物志（prosopography）数据库中收录的海量流放者人生轨迹事件。

本船的基本信息如下：
* 「范迪门地（VDL）档案记载的船名」：Indefatigable号
* 起航日期：1812年6月4日，从英国启航
* 抵达日期：1812年10月19日
* 「据贝茨顿（Bateson）所著《The Convict Ships》记载」：登船人数：200名男性；死亡人数：1名男性；抵达范迪门地人数：199名男性。

本数据集收录的流放者数据，来源于“创始者与幸存者”项目认定的本船流放者“基准人群”数据源。关于多源数据整合的方法与关联逻辑的详细说明，可参见本数据集的叙事性文档。针对塔斯马尼亚流放者的额外数据源匹配与关联工作目前仍在持续研究中。本数据集将定期以新增格式、搭配专属用户界面重新发布，以吸纳公众参与流放者信息匹配与关联的质量优化——例如可参考本数据集的实验性关联页面（EXPERIMENTAL linkage.htm）。

针对抵达诺福克岛与菲利普港的船舶的关联数据尚不完整。

本船的人物志索引收录于编号为“356.15”的目录中（即本船项目ID）。本数据集提供三种不同格式的文件：
-- （默认格式，适用于网页浏览）超文本标记语言（HTML）：采用万维网超文本标记语言格式，以“叙事性视图”展示本数据集（index.htm）；
-- （结构化人物志：人物与事件）XML/TEIp5格式：采用文本编码倡议（Text Encoding Initiative，版本p5）的XML格式，为本数据集提供底层XML数据库支持（index.xml）；
-- [暂未上线]（行列平铺格式）以制表符分隔的平铺文件格式，包含流放者姓名的简单列表，适用于Excel、Stata、SPSS或数据库导入使用（index.tab）。详见下文说明。
