Convicts sent to Australia = 160K US ?

Factual Questions
1

How many convicts were sent to America ?

2

Here we go again with the insanity.

3

I beg your pardon ?

If you wish to flame go to the pit please.

4

Could you provide more details to your question, please, trader? Like – what does it mean?

5

“How many convicts were sent to America ?”

OK I’ll space it up

“What was the total amount of convicts that were sent to North America ?” (EVER)

6

Link if it helps.

7

From any and all countries?

Do you mean North America the continent?

Do you mean the USA?

Do you mean only states that were part of the USA at the time, or became part of the USA once they were admitted as states?

We still need more information as your question is not succient enough to provide a meaningul and factual answer.

So, for me, trying to understand your questions from your point of view, without knowing what else is in your head framing the question is really quite irritating. No I’m not flaming (I know the rules about where to flame people).

Here’s a link for you, trader. It’s a word document.

Anyway - The British transported their convicts to America until the American War of Independence in 1776 - thats a lot longer then the 80 years we got.

So if any bright spark can advise …roughly is cool … how many Convicts were sent to America by the English over that period ?

Thanks - hmm big doc, from what i can see it does not look like more the 50,000 people before rebellion.

Sorry to be ignorant of my own back yard, but the kiwis had convicts also yeah ?

Also that Document you provided demonstrates that America believed in White Slavery at that time also - very interesting. Thank you.

Yup, there were a few convicts (young kids) that came here (NZ) – but that would be a mere handful, sometime in the 1840s or so 9off the top of my head, remembering recent old articles I’ve read)
