Captain Arthur Phillip, the first Governor of the New South Wales colony, was born in 1738 in Frimley, England. His father, Jacob Phillip, was a German-born merchant and his mother, Mary, was of English descent. The family background provided a modest upbringing, and Arthur's early life was shaped by his father's mercantile interests.
