The first French in Australia were convicts or free settlers who fled France of the French Revolution of 1789. A significant number of French arrived as a result of the Victorian goldrushes. Antoine Fauchery's photography and book "Letters From a Miner in Australia" recorded interesting aspects of life on the goldfields.[1]
Francis Romeo, born Corsica to Italian parents[4]
