Between 1788 and 1850, more than 1500 Jewish men and women were either transported to Australia as convicts or arrived as free settlers. This important biographical dictionary presents the details – occasionally sketchy but sometimes extensive – of more than 1500 of these pioneers.

Rabbi John Levi’s painstaking research through the fragmentary and often contradictory colonial records has culminated in an invaluable reference work and resource. A wealth of information, including birth names, extra names, nicknames, aliases and maiden names, together with details of marriages, children and occupations, makes These are the Names a major contribution to an important but little-recognised aspect of Australia’s settlement history.

For the first time, the earliest generation of Jews to settle in Australia is named and remembered.
