Vimeira - arrived in WA in 1865 | SOURCES |
This 941 ton ship was built at Sunderland in 1851. It was employed as a convict transport for Western Australia and left Portland, England on September 30, 1865 bound for the Swan River Colony. She carried the thirty third of 37 shipments of male convicts destined for Western Australia. The voyage took 83 days and the Vimeira arrived in Fremantle on December 22, 1865 with 99 passengers and 279 convicts [Erickson]. Malcolm Green and William Crauford were the captain and surgeon respectively. The only death recorded on the convict shipping and description lists was for Joseph Johnson (8612) and other sources say he died on the voyage out. There were 280 convict numbers assigned for the voyage ranging from (8476 to 8755). The [Bateson] account for this voyage disagreed with the other sources claiming that 281 convicts embarked and 278 arrived. Of the 99 passengers mentioned above, 90 were pensioner guards and their families, the number being made up of 30 pensioner guards, 23 wives, 22 sons and 15 daughters. The other 9 passengers have not been accounted for but were possibly cabin passengers or regular soldiers. William Crauford's surgeon's journal for the voyage is preserved in the Public Record Office (PRO) in London. Researchers can view a copy on the Australian Joint Copying Project (AJCP) microfilm reel 3181 which is held in most major libraries and archives offices throughout Australia. The following list is an alphabetically sorted list of the names associated with each of the 280 convict numbers assigned to this voyage. The comments field gives alternative names attributed to the various convicts, many of which are not only spelling variations, but alternative names used in later life or in subsequent re-convictions. The age quoted seems to refer to the age of the convict when he was taken to trial.
