Included are records relating to '''convict arrivals, assisted immigrants, births, deaths and marriages, publicans' licences, electoral rolls, naturalisation, returns of the colony ('Blue Books'), land grants, and the wide range of functions of the Colonial Secretary (1788-1825)'''.

Tasmania's population is more homogeneous than that of other states of Australia, with many of Irish and British descent. Approximately 65% of its residents are descendants of an estimated 10,000 "founding families" from the mid-19th century.
<br>
At the 2016 census, the most commonly nominated ancestries were:
*English (47.7%)
*Australian (46.3%)[N 3]
*Irish (11.7%)
*Scottish (10%)
*Indigenous (4.6%)[N 4]
*German (3.9%)
*Dutch (2.2%)
*Italian (1.5%)
*Chinese (1.5%)
<br>
19.3% of the population was born overseas at the 2016 census. The five largest groups of overseas-born were from England (3.7%), New Zealand (1%), Mainland China (0.6%), Scotland (0.4%) and the Netherlands (0.4%).
4.6% of the population, or 23,572 people, identified as Indigenous Australians (Aboriginal Australians and Torres Strait Islanders) in 2016.
