Historia biográfica

James Kelly (1791-1859), sealer, pilot and harbourmaster was born on 24 December 1791 at Parramatta, N.S.W. He went to sea in 1807 and made several sealing voyages to the Bass Straits and New Zealand. In 1814 he was appointed master of the schooner "Henrietta" owned by T.W. Birch (1774-1821), a whaler and merchant of Hobart, and later commanded Birch's brig "Sophia". In 1818 he was engaged in searching the East Coast for escaped convicts and in 1821 in transporting convicts to Macquarie Harbour in the "Sophia". He was Harbour Master of Hobart from 1819-1829. He also engaged in whaling and sealing, had a small farm on Bruny Island and property in Battery Point, Hobart. He married Elizabeth Griffiths in 1812 and had ten children.
