The first recorded Englishman to come to South Australia was Matthew Flinders, who explored the coastline in 1802. Following the successful journey of explorer Charles Sturt, who charted the Murray River through South Australia in 1829-30, the South Australian Colonisation Act was passed by the British Parliament in 1834, and the first settlers arrived in 1836. South Australia is the only state in Australia not to have been founded by convicts. Governor John Hindmarsh arrived in the new colony on the HMS Buffalo, accompanied only by free settlers, and these were English.
