Barnard and Ann Williams
Barnard and Ann Williams arrived in Australia as convicts 200 years ago
Barnard was tried at the Old Bailey on the 11th April 1804 and transported in 1807.
Barnard was the first person to live in Cadmans Cottage, which still stands today at the Rocks in Sydney and his name is on a plaque out the front of the building.
He lived upstairs and this is where he and Ann had brought their children to live when it was first built. The reason it is called Cadmans cottage is that John Cadman who had worked under Barnard before his death and was one of the waterman that took over later, was the longest resident of the cottage.
Barnard Williams was the first coxswain of the governor's barge.
On July 29th, 2007 around 100 of Barnard and Ann's descendants met here to celebrate the 200th anniversary.
