| 1963 | • the ladies are selected:- In early 1832 the powers that be decided that because of the imbalance of the sexes in the colonies it would be a good idea to encourage young girls and women to emigrate. It was thought this would have a twofold effect, solve the problem of th e shortage of servants for the growing number of land owners and upper classes, and the lack of marriageable women for the abundant male population. At this time in Hobart Town women were outnumbered by men, three to one. It was in this ligh t that benevolent organisations were asked to nominate suitable girls and women, between the ages of fifteen and thirty, to emigrate to Van Diemen's Land. So it was that the National Guardian Institute, nominated Ann Christian, along with a num ber of other girls, as a candidates to emigrate. On nominating Anne the Guardian Institute had reported her as a hard working girl. • On arrival:- Ann, aboard the 402 ton barque, 'Princess Royal' with 199 other free female emigrants, on the 12 of April 1832, set sail from London bound for the colonies and Hobart Town. The voyage lasted 148 days, and had not been very pleasurable, betwee n the weather, cramped accommodation, Ann shared cabin 7, and crew men looking for what ever favours the women would give. Then the final insult, on arrival at Storm Bay on 24 th. August, the Captain mistook Frederick Henry Bay for the mouth of the Derwent. Realising his mistake he anchored, but as luck would have it, a storm blew up and the ship dragged her ancho rs, the cables parted, soon the Princess Royal was grounded at Tiger Head. The steamer "Surprise" was sent from Hobart Town, on the 24th of August, to pick up the passengers from the stricken ship, having done so, arrived back with the female immigrants on the 5th of September. • The Welcome:- The ladies of the Princess Royal were not seen by the locals as an asset but as a liability there was a shortage of all commodities in the colony and here were another two hundred people to feed clothe and house. The language and behavior of many of them appalled the straight-laced Governor Arthur, and most of them proved surly servants at best, prompting the abusive term 'a Princess Royal' for a bawdy harridan years after. On arrival the Master of the 'Princess Royal' reported that Ann was one of thirty trouble makers on the voyage. The Ladies Committee of Hobart Town whose job it was to welcome the passengers and arrange lodgings described her as "no good and had gone to live in a low public house", Ann was just sixteen. | CHRISTIAN, Ann (I819)
