How much is a Shilling worth in Australian Dollars in the 18th century?

The first Australian Shilling was minted in 1910. Prior to that, the colonies that were to become Australia, and for a few years after Federation, used the British currency. There were 12 Pennies in a Shilling and 20 Shillings in a Pound. At the time of Australia's conversion to decimal currency in 1966, the Australian Shilling converted to 10 cents. One British Shilling in 1800 had the purchasing power of about $4.20 AUD today. One British Shilling in 1900 had the purchasing power of about $6.26 AUD today. NOTE - This historical conversion is the result of many calculations and considerations for which I cannot take credit. The resulting answer should only be regarded as an approximation.

Who chose the governor of each colony in pre-revolutionary war America?

Pre-Revolutionary War (prior to 1775) governors in the 13 Colonies were appointed by the British. It is worth remembering that the vast majority of colonists were British, with initially strong British loyalties and ties, so a British-appointed governor and locally appointed or voted legislator made good sense - until the Seven-Years War ended and colonists began to want to control their own lives and destinies.
