I've often wondered about marital status when people reached Australia, since so many remarried. Was the first marriage considered to have been annulled by transportation? I've found this:
"Governors encouraged marriage and family life believing that it served moral ends and brought stability to society. Various inducements such as tickets of leave, pardons and assistance with establishing households were offered. It was not uncommon in the early years for convicts to marry again in the colony even though they already had been married prior to transportation. Some acted in the belief that their spouse was dead, others either thought they would never see their spouse again or believed incorrectly that transportation annulled marriage. Divorce was not possible in New South Wales until 1873."
