The Voyage of the Atlas Atlas was a 435 ton sailing ship and convict ship that was dispatched in 1801 from Ireland to Australia. She was built in Souths Shields by Temple and launched in 1801 for Temple. Under the command of Richard Brooks, between 1801 and 1803 she sailed for the East India Company, on a voyage that first had her carrying convicts from Ireland to Port Jackson, and then going on to China, before returning to England. She sailed under a letter of marque issued to Brooks on 17 August 1801.[2] Atlas left Deptford on 16 July 1801, and Blackwall on 20 August. She reached Waterford on 19 September and Cork four days later.[3] She sailed from Ireland on 29 November 1801, with 151 male and 28 female convicts. She arrived at Rio de Janeiro on 2 February 1802.[3] Atlas arrived at Port Jackson on 7 July 1802.[4] Sixty-six male and two female convicts died on the voyage, or just after disembarkation. Governor Philip Gidley King censured Brooks for this high death rate, which was the result of his negligence and the overcrowding that his transport of his personal cargo caused. Thomas Jamison, Atlas??'?s surgeon, charged Brooks with assault in a civil action, and the transport commissioners threatened to prosecute him, but Brooks escaped punishment.[5] Citations and references (from Wikipedia) 1.
