This would make her the first white woman to set foot on Australia. After conviction, she was sent to the hulk Dunkirk.[citation needed] She left England on the convict transport Friendship in May 1787. She was about 20 at the time. She was placed in irons a number of times during the voyage. After arriving in Australia, she received 25 lashes on July 14, 1791 for coming in from her settlement without permission. She lived for a while with James Dodding and subsequently made her way to van Diemen's Land (Tasmania) on the Porpoise.[citation needed] There she married Samuel King. They settled in the Derwent Valley. There is a headstone to a "Betty King" in the churchyard of Magra, Tasmania (3 km north of New Norfolk), who was buried August 6, 1856, aged 93.[2]
