The Prinsep Connection: John Prinsep as a convict contractor: Section Six
The difficulties of explaining the Prinsep Connection in the context of “c
onvict contractors” are several - and are connected with the contextual co
mplexities of referring to the diverting Pattle family history as outlin
ed above.
By 1800, a new name, Prinsep, had entered the lists of merchants wanti
ng to send a convict ship to Australia. This Prinsep name came to London v
ia India, with new ideas in mind - John Prinsep. Between 1800-1804, John P
rinsep and his partners Lambert and Saunders were expressing interest in s
hipping prisoners to Sydney. ([46]) ([47]) Prinsep’s involvements are lit
tle reported, but there is an air of mercantile giftedness in what litt
le is known of him. John Prinsep (1746-1831) had been 17 years in India wh
ere he pioneered indigo production. He returned to London with a fortu
ne by 1788, became established as a merchant, and by 1804 he (unsuccessful
ly) planned a whale fishery in the South Seas, transporting convicts on t
he outward voyage, as per John St Barbe’s proposal of the early 1790s, a
nd shipping wool and freight back to London. ([48]) In July, 1804, regard
ed as a London merchant, John Prinsep was examined in Council Chamber at W
hitehall, presumably about such possibilities. In 1804, as commercial m
en operating on an impressive scale, Prinsep and Saunders tendered a remar
kable 16 ships to the East India Company; probably, mostly in the Bengal r
ice trade.
However, the later involvements of John Prinsep’s sons in Western Austral
ia are still not clear. What is clear, however, is that Prinsep plans, how
ever much they failed in execution, had moved from New South Wales to West
ern Australia - involving a continental overview - the first such continen
tal overview adumbrated by any merchants with London-India shipping and co
mmercial connections. And perhaps prompted by NSW wool-production promote
r, John Macarthur, perhaps not, Prinsep early on had at least considered w
ool freight from New South Wales. But the Prinsep picture failed to develo
p.
