Our organisation is a chapter of the NSW Fellowship of First Fleeters.
Our members meet bi monthly on the first Saturday
of each second month to discuss matters relating to the colonisation of Australia when our ancestors first arrived on the
First Fleet in 1788.
Our membership is at present 48 but the numbers who would be eligible in the Tamworth area alone could
be in the hundreds.
Our Mission
Our mission is to remind the public of our valuable heritage.
"To live in the hearts and minds of descendants is never
to die"
