Australia's First Fleet From Barbara Turner, 1992. Capt. Arthur Phillip, R.N. was commissioned as the first Governor of New South Wales. He set sail on May 13th, 1787 from Portsmouth with 11 vessels. He arrived in N.S.W. with 717 convicts of whom 180 were women, guarded by 191 marines under 19 officers. Note: The incorrect spellings of some place names is how they appeared in the newspaper. Some of those listed did not arrive in Australia as they either did not embark or died en route From the "LONDON GAZETTE", October 1788 CONVICTS TRANSPORTED TO THE NEW COLONY Your Correspondent looks to our Readers and has ascertained as far as possible the names of those who have been convicted of crimes in the Country of England since 1783 and have been sentenced by His Majesty's Judges to be sent to that part of New Holland known as New South Wales Your Correspondent looks to our Readers for their indulgence to involuntary errors and omissions, and trust general attention will secure us from trespassing on their kindness too often.

This article is extracted from the file CONVICTS.ZIP, which was authored by a Barbara Turner in 1992 and which is available on many genealogical bulletin boards (BBSs) world-wide.

The list of convicts appears to have been transcribed from a fictitious newspaper, the London Chronicle of October 1788, which appeared as a four-page "souvenir lift-out newspaper" in the Sydney Daily Mirror on Monday 20 January 1969. In the article which announced the publication (Friday 20 January 1969 p. 9), the Mirror stated that the newspaper, one of a series of five, would be written "in the style of the day" and "follow the enormous success of our London Gazette newspapers which last year covered Captain Cook's voyages". The souvenir was compiled by the "Mirror's Insight team". No sources were cited.

A follow-up article on Tuesday 21 January 1969 advised: "Because of the great interest in the Mirror's historical newspapers, arrangements have been made to reprint them all on imported antique paper. Hundreds of readers have telephoned to say they were fascinated by the full list of names of the convict arrivals in the First Fleet. The reprints are expected to be available next week."

It is important to remember that no single, authoritative list of First Fleet arrivals exists. The best researched and documented work on the First Fleet is undoubtedly Mollie Gillen's The Founders of Australia: a biographical dictionary of the First Fleet, Library of Australian History, Sydney, 1989.
