These are the ships that my ancestor Elizabeth Thomas came out to Australia and norfolk Island on.

The Sirius

The Sirius was used to transport convicts from Sydney town to Norfolk Island, as part of the First Settlement. Elizabeth Thomas came out on 4 March 1790 on this ship. Unfortunately the Sirius was wrecked on the shores of Norfolk Is on Sydney Bay, in March 1790. She was carrying supplies for the First Settlement. Elizabeth later went to the town of Hobart in Tas on the ship "Estremina". These are different pictures of the same ship, the Sirius.
