This book was released on 2023-03-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's well documented that there were major embarkations from Norfolk Island in the latter years of the Island's first Settlement, notably from 1807 to 1814, as the inhabitation of Island was being wound down for its closure. However, there were some substantial embarkations in early years that have not been fully documented as a contextual group study. The earliest of these large embarkations that of the Kitty to Port Jackson departing Norfolk Island 9 Mar 1793. This was not for a winding down of the settlement but rather a changeover of military personnel, settlers leaving the Island, transfer of some time expired convicts to Port Jackson and a small number of troublesome persons being returned to NSW.

Book excerpt: Twentieth century writers have generally condemned the harshness of the convict administrations of a number of the Commandants during both the First (1788-1814) and Second (1825-1855) Settlements of Norfolk Island. On the other hand, several Commandants have also received unwarranted praise for their efforts to improve the lot of the convicts under their control. Some of these views have relied on questionable or biased writings, which are not supported by the surviving official records. This thesis considers some of the environmental factors and events that affected the Commandants. After examining the significant features of their periods of service on Norfolk Island, it is evident that historians have unfairly treated a number of these officers. The severity of convict life on the Island during the Second Settlement has been exaggerated; the regime of corporal punishment has been dramatized and was in fact less severe than that applied during the First Settlement, which was not planned as a place for secondary punishment. Again, for example, there is no support for the view that during the Second Settlement the convicts welcomed death to relieve them of their sufferings on Norfolk Island. In the 19th century, a significant proportion of the informative literature about the convict settlements on Norfolk Island, and particularly the Second Settlement, was written by individuals who wished to promote their own agendas for change. Supporters of concepts such as prison reform, opposition to transportation, the elimination of assignment to private masters, and moral reform in the colony of New south Wales, provided exaggerated pictures of life on Norfolk Island. The misrepresentation of the Commandants is attributed to the survival and promotion of these often-skewed writings that yielded copy for imaginative, fictional narratives about the convict years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the NSW colony Chaplain, Rev. Richard Johnson, sailed away from Norfolk Island aboard the Queen on 22 November 1791, was he to know that 230 years later, research would prove that there were 63 couples married during his visit to Norfolk Island in November 1791. Even though there are no official contemporaneous records of the actual marriages of November 1791, from there is a vast collection of other primary sources. Historian Cathy Dunn has evaluated all these records confirming the actual marital status relating to the marriages by Johnson in November 1791 on Norfolk island.

Download or read book The Sydney Wars written by Stephen Gapps and published by NewSouth. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sydney Wars tells the history of military engagements between Europeans and Aboriginal Australians – described as ‘this constant sort of war’ by one early colonist – around the greater Sydney region. Telling the story of the first years of colonial Sydney in a new and original way, this provocative book is the first detailed account of the warfare that occurred across the Sydney region from the arrival of a British expedition in 1788 to the last recorded conflict in the area in 1817. The Sydney Wars sheds new light on how British and Aboriginal forces developed military tactics and how the violence played out. Analysing the paramilitary roles of settlers and convicts and the militia defensive systems that were deployed, it shows that white settlers lived in fear, while Indigenous people fought back as their land and resources were taken away. Stephen Gapps details the violent conflict that formed part of a long period of colonial strategic efforts to secure the Sydney basin and, in time, the rest of the continent. ‘A powerful and cogent contribution to one of the most contentious aspects of Australian history: the war between British settlers and the First Nations. The fine detailed research will mean that we will have to radically reassess our understanding of the history of the first thirty years of settlement.’ —Henry Reynolds
