132 EAELV HISTORY OF BRUNY ISLAND, 



Colonel George Arthur, Lieutenant-Governor, to 

 mark that sad event, and is placed on this spot 

 by Major Thomas' Ryan, 50th Regiment, one of 

 the survivors upon this occasion.'"' 



Green Island. The He Verte of D'Entrecasteaux. This 

 island is referred to by Bligh, who mistook the 

 Channel for Frederick Henry Bay. In the MSS. 

 account of his voyage in 1792 (Mitchell Library, 

 Sydney), Bligh states in his description of the 

 view from Penguin Island • — "From the heights 

 "of the island, Frederick Henry Bay can be seen 

 "distinctly, and an island in it bore N. 30 W." 

 See also Bond's description of "Frederick Henry 

 "Bay'' in Bligh's MSS. 



Great Taylor's Bay — Little Taylor's Bay. A curious blend- 

 ing of the French and English nomenclature is 

 apparent in this case. D'Entrecasteaux refers to 

 the larger inlet as "La Grande Anse," and the 

 smaller as "La Petite Arise." Hayes simply 

 charted one bay. calling it Ray Taylor's Bay 

 (after Captain Taylor, Bombay Marines). 



Kelly Point. The correct Cap de la Sorti of the French. 

 Called Kelly Point after Captain Kelly, the 

 discoverer of Port Davey, who was the pilot for 

 the Derwent, and had a farm at this point in the 

 twenties. Ross (1829) refers to the beautiful farm 

 of Mr. Kelly, and on the opposite coast to the 

 farm and tobacco gardens of Mr. Joshua Ferguson 

 at Tinder Box Bay. In 1830 there was a station 

 situated about three miles to the south of Mr. 

 Kelly's farm where rations were issued to the 

 natives. 



Kinghorne Point. The Cap le Grand of D'Entrecasteaux'^ 

 chart. From the letterpress evidently originally 

 intended as Cap Legrand, after Ensign 

 Lcgra/nd of the Esperance. Like Kelly Point, 

 the early French designation gave way to that of 

 the first settler. Mr. Kinghorne had a farm in 

 this locality in the twenties. I have not been 

 able to trace if he was identical with the Mr. 

 Kinghorne who was at one time master of the 

 colonial schooner Waterloo. 



Lunawanna. Lttnawanna-allonah was the Tasmanian 

 native name for Bruny Island. The names have 

 now been given to two separate districts of 

 South Bruny.
