The Convict Era's Major Shipwreck 1833
Jacquetta Pappas
Shipwrecked is an accident in which a ship is destroyed or sunk at sea, especially by hitting rocks, or a ship that has been destroyed or sunk in such an accident.
In August 1833, the Amphitrite, a small convict ship bound for the Australian penal colonies, was wrecked in a terrible storm on the coast of France. She carried 102 female prisoners, branded as social outcasts, cynically being sent off to be used as colonial breeding stock. Also on board were 12 of their children, along with the captain, the crew, a medical officer, and one passenger - the medical officer's wife. Only three survived.
