Historique
The Fellowship of First Fleeters is an all-volunteer organisation of descendants of people who arrived in Sydney Cove, NSW, with the First Fleet on the 26 January 1788.
The Fellowship was formed in 1968, and since then, over 9167 descendants have established their lineage, and joined the Fellowship. Links have so far been established in 137 families to no fewer than 195 individual First Fleet Ancestors.
The members are interested in discovering stories of the lives and times of their ancestors. What their lives were like overseas, the journey to Australia, their lives in their new land, and of their descendants. For further information about the organisation and research resources, se the websites.
