Henry, Jane and infant Joseph; William, Margaret and possibly baby Elizabeth emigrated on the Wanata, arrivingin Australia on 17th September 1852. This is the story of John Thomson of Ireland published on the internet.

About this time, a representative of the Victorian Government was holding public meetings in the area to encouragemigration to Australia of suitable labourers "of the class of Mechanics and Handicraftsmen, Agricultural Labourers, orDomestic Servants." John Thomson applied for assisted passage as an agricultural labourer, and by lowering the ages ofhimself and wife, was accepted.

John, his wife and nine children were assisted financially by friend, Hugh Bellas, to travel to England from Belfast, wherethey embarked on the ship "Wanata" at Liverpool on 10 Jun 1852 with 1841 other passengers. Shortly after leaving atyphoid-like fever broke out and quickly spread throughout the ship. Between June 13th and September 739 persons haddied, both adults and children, including 2 year old James Thomson. The ship was quarantined after arrival in Hobson'sBay, Victoria on September 17th , a further 13 persons dying while in quarantine. As this was the fourth large emigrantship to arrive from Liverpool under the Victorian Government Scheme with a high death toll, an official enquiry followedwhich blamed the emigration authorities in England for allowing such overcrowding on the ships and the poor healthconditions overall. Although "Wanata" was a new ship, it was overcrowded with insufficient space for provisions and freshwater. It was found that the water supplies were contaminated, toilet facilities were inadequate for the large number onboard, ventilation was poor and the hospital accommodation on board was inadequate to cope with the large numbers ofpatients.

All surviving passengers were allowed on shore on October 4th. The three eldest Thomson children, John, Elizabeth andNancy, soon found employment with local families around Melbourne. As accommodation in the town was scarce andexpensive, the rest of the family, like so many others, camped south of the river Yarra in "Canvas Town", tents rentedfrom the Government for a few shillings per week. John obtained work as a labourer at an exciting time in Melbourne'shistory, with the population increasing rapidly. The first railway in Australia was built from Melbourne to Sandridge, andnew suburbs were established at Fitzroy, Collingwood and Richmond. The family moved to Fitzroy, all the children foundwork, and most married and settled in Fitzroy and Richmond, areas close to the city.

The Research Department of the Victorian State Library has made a search of the contemporary newspaper reports of the arrival of this ship. Itsfindings are as follows:

"On September, 1852, the ship "Wanata" arrived in the Bay and anchored off Gelibrand Point (near Williamstown), with 796 government emigrants aboard.She had left Liverpool on June 19th with 820 emigrants. Thirty-nine of these died during the voyage. Of these thirty-nine, thirty-three were children. Thediscrepancy in the total is most probably explained by births during the voyage.The six adults died as follows - one from apoplexy, one from consumption and four from fever (probably typhoid fever).Dr Thompson was the superintending surgeon on the ship, and Dr Dobbin was his assistant. Dr Hunt, the Health Officer of the port, visited the ship andordered her to quarantine offshore between Brighton and St Kilda. The schooner, "Apollo", was stationed nearby as a guard ship to prevent passengers fromescaping from the "Wanata" until the quarantine restrictions were lifted by the authorities. It was proposed to release the ship from quarantine after a weekhad passed but, on September 23rd, a new case of fever was reported.All the sick passengers were then transferred to the schooner "Fanny", which lay nearby, and this ship (the "Fanny") was then also placed in quarantine.On October 4th, the "Wanata" was allowed to leave the quanartine (sic) area and join the other ships in the Bay, and arrangements were made for themigrants to disembark.There was much criticism in the newspapers regarding the overcrowding permitted on the "Wanata", although she was a large ship of 1412 tons under thecommand of Captain Lee."

Emigration to Australia

Another Story from the North Family Historywebsite

Charlotte's parents were Charles Gordon andJessie (Janet) Phillips, from Dalkeith in Scotland,and they arrived in Victoria on board the 'Wanata'in October of 1852. Wanata was a double-deckership and had 796 passengers. On that tragicvoyage, 39 passengers, 30 being children, died.Most of the deaths were from typhus. After thetragic loss of life from the vessels Wanata,Bourneuf, Marco Polo and especially theTiconderoga, the Emigration Commission madethe decision not to use double-decker vessels inthe future. It also reintroduced the policy wherebyany family in which there were more than twochildren under seven, or three children under tenyears, would not be accepted for emigration.
