 Volumes two and three covered the arrivals of convicts and free settlers, both during the period of convict arrivals respectively.The "Bicentennial" series was done in response to continuing public interest in supplying genealogical material to the original Dictionary project team which had accumulated significant additional data which needed to be added to the original series.Due to the quantity of the additional material it was decided to publish an entire new series rather than a supplement to the earlier series.
