Introduction
The focus of this page is to aid genealogical connection: surfacing names of people who were of African Ancestry in Australia, not yet identified through convict or ships lists.
If you are looking to solve the mystery of your African Ancestry in Australia, this is a database of male individuals found in the Australian newspaper digitisation programme Trove, under the search terms:
Man of Colour and Darkey
These descriptive terms were often used to identify people of African descent in 19th century Australia. In the United Kingdom (and pre Federation Australia was British) "black" was historically equivalent with "person of color", a general term for non-European peoples. [1] It was sometimes used for "Indians" in Australian newspapers, and where this was the case seems to have been stated. Whilst care has been taken no absolute guarantee can be made that everyone listed here was of African descent.
Blackfella
This term is not being used to locate people of African ancestry in the 19th century.
The descriptor "blackfella" was more commonly associated with Australian Aboriginals as can be seen by the following examples from Australian newspapers (extracted from the timeframe of the 19th century) across 6 states:
South Australia [2] Western Australia [3] Victoria: [4] New South Wales [5] Queensland [6] Tasmania [7] Wikipedia [8]
Names are still being added to this list. If you wish to add any names (with links) from Australian newspapers (of the 19th century) the page is open for doing so. Please do not adjust the explanatory text. Many thanks.

- Daniel Alexander, born in the West Indies, came to Australia via America in the mid 1800s. Working on the Murray riverboats, and known as ‘Black Alex’, he was an impressive figure, known for his strength and his claim to be the greatest swearer and talker on the river. In 1884 he commissioned a riverboat which he called the Mayflower, using his savings plus a bank loan. In 1890 he got into debt and the bank repossessed the boat. The Mayflower is the oldest original paddlesteamer in South Australia; restored, it runs cruises out of the Mannum Dock Museum. Black Alex’s biography is told in a children’s book: Alex’s Adventures on the Paddle Wheeler of the Murray, 1997, by Brice Douglas (the Mayflower’s last owner). the conversation.com (see comments: "Jeanette Hope"
