12 October, 1848: PPH -- Probation Pass Holder. "The probation system replaced the assignment system for male convicts in 1840. When they arrived, the government no longer assigned them to free settlers. Instead convicts worked on government gangs for a period ‘on probation’. In time, and depending on their behaviour, they passed through stages of the probation process. Restrictions reduced as they moved towards ‘Ticket of Leave’ status." (https://libraries.tas.gov.au/) 1849: He was sent to serve time on Norfolk Island. --0--
