From 1828 the following details are fairly regularly available: trade, height, age, colour of complexion, hair, whiskers, eyebrows and eyes, shape of head, visage, forehead, nose, mouth and chin; and information of tattoos, deformities, scars, speech impediments, pigmented spots, birthmarks, etc. Native place is also usually given.
NB - There are a few discrepancies between this record, and the one made in England - where he had a long face and blue eyes!
Is it possible that one of the recorders got on to the wrong line in the list of convicts, and recorded some details of a different man? His hair possibly might have changed from light brown to dark brown during the voyage, but it seems unlikely that his eyes turned from blue to hazel.
