Snarers and Cattlemen of the Mersey High Country – The Lees of Lees' Paddocks | Simon Cubit | [USED – SC – Out of Print]

Some Notes on Maria Island and its Penal Settlements
Maria Island, off Tasmania's east coast, operated as a convict penal settlement from 1825 to 1832 — established to ease overcrowding at Hobart — before closing due to frequent escapes and reopening as a probation station from 1842 to 1850. Darlington, at the island's north, is today regarded as the most intact surviving example of a convict probation station in Australia, and is UNESCO World Heritage-listed as part of the Australian Convict Sites.
