Flinders charting the gulfs and coast of South Australia.
When the Investigator left England it had a year’s supply of food- salted meat, hardtack- a type of hard baked bread- like a biscuit, and some livestock- sheep, pigs, goats and fowls. They also took presents for the natives. They included looking gasses, mirrors, pocketknives, combs, earrings, beads, red caps, blankets, needles, thread, shoemakers’ knives, scissors, hammers, axes, and hatchets. Flinders did not usually approach Aborigines but waited for them to approach him. He was patient and always kept a respectful distance but he did not record meetings with Aborigines in South Australia as he seldom was on in June 1802 to sail to the Torre Strait and to circumnavigate Australia he took two Aboriginal men with him. One was Bungaree who had sailed with him to Norfolk Island in 1798 with George Bass. The other was Nanbaree and the men were both from the Sydney area. Flinders noted that once they left the Sydney area the men were useless for language translation but helpful in approaching other Aboriginal people. On their northern only fired once Flinders felt unsafe at times when near Aboriginal men. Only one sailor was speared and killed by Aborigines in northern Australian and Flinders was angry that the sailor had caused offence. Retaliation led to one Aboriginal man being killed before Flinders crew moved on. The Investigator expedition was not just about exploring the unknown southern coast but also about describing botanical items, collecting shells etc. Flinders drew the coastline and hills but the voyage artist was Ferdinando Bauer, the botanist was Robert Brown, the mineralogist was John Allen and William Westall was the landscape artist. Drawings and specimens of the voyage ended up in various museums in London and Vienna in particular.
After leaving Cape Leeuwin Matthew Flinders sailed along the Great Australian Bight and started charting and naming places in South Australia starting with Fowlers Bay on 8 January 1802. He named it after one of his officers on the Investigator. As he moved on he named about 135 South Australia coastal sites. On 7 February he named Denial Bay( Ceduna) as there was no major river entering into the bay as he had hoped for followed by Smokey Bay as bush fires had lefty a cloud of smoke across the bay and then he went on to name Streaky Bay as sunlight reflected across the bay give it a streaky appearance. Further south off what is now Elliston he named Flinders Island after his younger brother Samuel. The island group there is known as the Investigator Group of islands. SA’s Flinders Island is not to be confused with Flinders Island in Bass Strait which was named after Flinders by NSW Governor Phillip King. Flinders noted wallabies on this island off Elliston and by the 1820s and 1830 whalers and sealers operated from it. In the 1890s the Schlink family lived on the island with about 1,500 acres growing oats, wheat ad grazing sheep. In 2020 the owners signed an agreement with the SA government to make most of the island a protected environmental area for penguin, seals, and bird life. In 2012 the waters around Flinders Island were appropriately designated as the Investigator Marine Park. Further down the coast Flinders explored the inlet which he named Coffin Bay after Admiral Sir Isaac Coffin. The southernmost point of Eyre Peninsula he named Cape Catastrophe because on 21 February 1802 eight of his crew in a cutter, searching for fresh water, were capsized by a wave and drowned. Captain Flinders were deeply saddened by this disaster and named eight nearby islands after the dead sailors. He next stopped at the first harbour of the gulf which he named Spencer’s Gulf after the First Lord of the Admiralty Lord Spencer. This locality he named Port Lincoln after his home county and the island there he named Boston after the nearest town to his home in Lincolnshire. He also named the Sir Joseph Banks group of islands.
Towards the top of Spencers Gulf he named Middleback Ranges, Hummock Hill (later Whyalla), Point Lowly and at the head of the Gulf he named Mt Brown after the botanist and naturalist on the Investigator and he record a rugged range of mountains. He landed at a site now part of Port Augusta and crossed country to the foot of these ranges which were named such by Governor Gawler in 1839. On the eastern side of Spencers Gulf he named Point Pearce after Mr Pearce of the Admiralty and Hardwick Bay after Charles Yorke who later became Lord Hardwick First Lord of the Admiralty in 1810. He also named Althorpe Islands and Corny Point. Althorpe Islands were named after Lord Spencer’s son Viscount Althorpe. He sailed up Gulf of St Vincent which he named on 30 March 1802 after Admiral John Jervis who was the Earl of St Vincent. He land at the top of St Vincent Gulf at what later became Port Wakefield and named Hummocky Mountain. On the way down St Vincent Gulf he named Mt Lofty from the sea before landing on an island with a plentiful supply of kangaroos. Flinders named it Kangaroo Island on 22 March. The crew needed some fresh meat as they had had none for four months and Flinders recorded that his men killed 31 kangaroos. A hundredweight of kangaroo tails, forequarters and heads were made into soup, and steaks were cut for both officers and crew which they ate for several days. They were able to take on water from Kangaroo Island. Flinders named Investigator Strait for the ocean separating Yorke Peninsula and Kangaroo Island and Backstairs Passage for the strait separating Kangaroo Island and the Fleurieu Peninsula. He named several places near what is now Penneshaw( Kangaroo Head and Point and Marsden) and he named Nepean Bay opposite Cape Jervis after Sir Evan Nepean who was in 1802 the Secretary of the Board of the Admiralty. He named the southern point of Fleurieu Peninsula Cape Jervis after John Jervis the Earl of St Vincent. The accuracy and detail of his charts can be seen in Flinder’s 1814 map of upper Spencers Gulf from his exploration charts and recordings. Upon leaving Kangaroo Island Flinders named Encounter Bay and Baudin’s rock at Robe. The bay there had already been named by French Captain Nicolas Baudin as Guichen Bay. Flinders then moved eastwards but the lower South East coast of SA had already been charted by Captain James Grant in 1800 when he named Cape Banks, Cape Northumberland etc.
Fleurieu Peninsula, Encounter Bay and Baudin.
Captain Nicolas Baudin was in South Australia waters between March and April 1802. On his 1802 voyage Baudin had named in the South East, Carpentier Rocks, Rivoli Bay, Cape Jaffa, Cape Dombey and Guichen Bay (Robe), Lacapede Bay ( Kingston) and finally Fleurieu Peninsula. The Fleurieu was named after Count Charles de Fleurieu a French naval officer, cartographer and the Minister for Marine. On 9 April 1802 Baudin on Le Géographe and Flinders on the Investigator accidentally met at Encounter Bay. Like Flinders voyage this was a scientific voyage too with naturalists, botanists, zoologists etc on board. Despite not speaking French Flinders went aboard the Géographe and met Baudin who spoke some English. Flinders was unaware of the Baudin expedition and asked if Baudin was the captain. Baudin on the other hand knew who Flinders was and new about his voyage. In their discussion Flinders said that he had named Kangaroo Island and nearby geographical features. But when Baudin produced maps of the area back in Paris the name of Kangaroo Island was changed to Ile de Decrès, Backstairs Passage became Détroit de Colbert and Investigator Strait became Détroit de Lacapede. Baudin’s second in charge Louis Freycinet admitted Flinders had made new discoveries and named them but the Parisiennes kept the French names. Freycinet returned to chart more of Spencers Gulf in 1803. Both Baudin and Flinders returned to Port Jackson and the two met again in Sydney in May and June of 1802. The two captains obviously respected each other. When Captain Baudin left Sydney to return to France he took with him, with the Governor Phillip King’s approval, a young convict girl to be his mistress on the voyage. Alas for Nicolas Baudin he died on the voyage home to France in Mauritius in September 1803 aged 49 years. A member of Baudin’s ship Francois Peron published his charts of South Australia whilst Flinders was under house arrest in Mauritius. Francois Peron was the naturalist on Baudin’s voyage. He published his Voyage de decouverts aux Terres Australe with maps in 1807. Every place west of Wilsons Promontory in Victoria was called Terre Napoleon. Louis de Freycinet who accompanied Baudin on most of his voyages also published a second Atlas of Terre Napoleon in 1811 three years before Flinders published his work. Comparisons of Freycinet’s and Flinder’s maps showed the superiority and accuracy of Flinders charts over the French ones. In was only in 1824 that the French authorities acknowledged Flinder’s place names and kept the French ones only for those first surveyed by the Baudin or Freycinet mainly around Kangaroo Island and near Robe. The French still wanted to claim Terre Napoleon although Emperor Napoleon had been replaced by King Louis XV111 in July 1815 just after the Battle of Waterloo ( June 1815) and the demise of Emperor Napoleon. Bourbon King Louis XV111 was a son of the late Louis XV1 who was guillotined on 21 January 1793.
In 1902, during the centenary of Flinder’s survey of South Australia, a tablet commemorating the meeting between Flinders and the Captain Nicolas Baudin was installed on the Bluff at Encounter Bay. The cairn is located at Rosetta Head on the top of the Bluff nearly 100 metres above sea level. It was unveiled by the SA Governor Lord Tennyson. Flinders is also remembered in Victor Harbor with Flinders’ Drive at Encounters Bay ( and there is also a Baudin Drive) and Flinders Parade along the beach front in central Victor Harbor where the giant Norfolk Island pines grow.
Memorials to Flinders in South Australia and Australia.
Although there are numerous memorials to Flinders in South Australia he is one of the few men to have memorials in other states too. Monuments to the achievements and voyages of Captain Matthew Flinders can be found in Tasmania (3), Victoria (13), New South Wales (6), Queensland (11), Western Australia (2) and in South Australia (30) approximately. Although this list refers to cairns and regular monuments Victoria also has the Matthew Flinders High School in Geelong, Flinders Street Railway station in Melbourne, Flinders Street in the CBD, a federal electorate called Flinders and the town of Flinders on Mornington Peninsula. Tasmania has Flinders Island in Bass Strait and The Derwent River and Mt Wellington were named by Matthew Flinders. In South Australia Matthew Flinders is known for naming various geographical features and sites. Boston Bay and Boston Island and Port Lincoln district, Spencers Gulf and St Vincent Gulf, the Flinders Ranges, Mt Brown in the Flinders which was scaled by Flinders and the Investigator’s botanist Robert Brown and named after him. Flinders also named Investigator Strait, Backstairs Passage, Cape Jervis, Kangaroo Island and Encounter Bay. Matthew Flinders is also memorialised in SA with Flinders Street in Adelaide, Flinders Railway Station, Flinders Hospital, Flinders Park a suburb, Flinders Street Baptist Church and Flinders Chase National Park on Kangaroo Island.
Perhaps the most significant memorials to Captain Flinders are the Obelisk on Mt Lofty. It was unveiled by the Governor Lord Tennyson in 1902 to celebrate the centenary of Flinders charting of the SA coast. Another important memorial is in Port Augusta at the site where Flinders and Brown and some crew left the Investigator and crossed to the Flinders Ranges. Other important memorials are at the top of St Vincent’s Gulf in Port Wakefield, at Rapid Bay where a plaque was affixed to the Colonel William Light memorial in 1948. It commemorators the naming and sighting of Backstairs Passage. There is the monument at Rosetta Head at Encounter Bay which is very significant as it commemorates Flinder’s meeting with French Captain Nicolas Baudin. One memorial, seldom visited today, is in Lincoln National Park near Port Lincoln. An easily seen monument was unveiled in 1939 at the spot where Flinders landed near Port Lincoln to search for fresh water as 1939 was the centenary of the town of Port Lincoln. The other is high on a hill in dense scrub within the National Park above Memory Cove. It memorialises the drowning of eight of Flinder’s crew in February 1802 at Cape Catastrophe. Flinders himself left a copper plaque here to commemorate these lost lives but it is not there now but in the possession of the SA Maritime Museum. Now there is a replica plaque at Memory Cove. This was the first European plaque erected in South Australia. An obelisk was erected above Memory Cove during Sir John Franklin’s term of office as Governor of Van Diemens Land between 1836 and 1843. The obelisk on Stamford Hill was built of stone shipped from Van Diemens Land. The monument was restored with a marble facing in 1867. A new bronze plaque was unveiled on it in 1934. In Whyalla there is an iron figure of Flinders and Freycinet appropriately produced with iron from the Whyalla blast furnace.
On Kangaroo Island a plaque was erected at Prospect Hill beside Pelican Lagoon, both named by Flinders’ in 1802 when the Investigator moored at Kangaroo Head Flinders rowed himself across Pelican Lagoon and then climbed Prospect Hill himself on the narrow isthmus linking the Dudley Peninsula with the rest of Kangaroo Island. The plaque was placed here at Hog Bay in 1948. Flinder’s camp was at Kangaroo Head which is almost part of Penneshaw. It was whilst Flinders was at Penneshaw that he sighted and named Mt Lofty. Ironically the big memorial in Penneshaw is to Nicolas Baudin. French Mans Rock Dome Memorial was built in Penneshaw in 1906. At this memorial there are plaques affixed by French naval personnel to commemorate Baudin’s visit to Kangaroo Island. They were placed there in 1986 for SA’s 150 year jubilee, 1988 for the bicentenary of the European settlement of Australia and another plaque was erected there in 1990.

After an exhausting walk along Chesil bank I barely had the strength to lift my camera and brace against the wind. Following a strength reviving Pepperami and hot chocolate I found a nice'n'rusty tobacco tin and propped it up on the side of the weatherbeaten old shack. Made a pleasing composition I think. When at home I kicked myself for not opening the tin; could have been money in there.
Thanks for looking.
