Records are not exact, as they do not reflect how many people actually arrived in Australia alive.

The First Fleet consisted of 11 ships carrying approximately 1,487 people. As far as records show, this included -

  • 759 convicts,
  • 13 children of convicts,
  • 252 marines, wives and children
  • 20 officials
  • 210 Royal Navy seamen
  • 233 merchantmen
