Child Slavery Australia

Young prisoners were brought to Australia as convicts under the British Empire penal system from 1788 to 1868. Mary Ann Wade (5 October 1777 – 17 December 1859) was only 11 years old when transported to Australia as the youngest female convict aboard the Lady Juliana as part of the Second Fleet.
