Jorgenson - A Shred of Autobiography or the progress of a convict HCDJ
Added: Nov 2, 2026
Jorgen Jorgenson (1780–1841) was a Danish-born adventurer who briefly ruled Iceland as a self-appointed administrator in 1809, earning him the nickname 'the Convict King'. Transported to Van Diemen's Land in 1826, he worked there as an explorer, constable — including in parties sent against Tasmanian Aboriginal people — and newspaper editor, before receiving a full pardon in 1835.

Early Colonial Furniture in New South Wales and Van Diemen's Land
