The journey on the “York”. Interestingly it seems some of the historical clocks in Tasmania arrived on the York with Captain John Craig Dumas and the Dumas family. King George IV donated six clocks, each with a great bell. When they arrived aboard the convict ship York in 1829, three were installed in Hobart, one at St Luke’s Richmond, one at St Johns Launceston and one at Christchurch Longford[1] [2] [3]
