- The Parkhurst lads were convicted children from the Isle of Wight and by 1852, 334 had been sent to the Swan River and apprenticed to local settlers. Other boys were sent to Tasmania, New Zealand, Victoria and even Norfolk Island.
- The boys were listed in Paul Buddee's book, Fate of the Artful Dodger and in Andrew Gill's later work, Forced Labour for the West. Additional information was given in AJCP Reel 448 CO 18/58 letter #70 – 'Report by Wittenoom, Guardian of Juveniles'.
