Note*FISHWICK, George Alfred,                         of Perth.

He was born in 1832 in Fremantle and in 1855 he married at Fremantle Catherine McCarthy. She also was born in Fremantle in 1835 and was the daughter of a policeman. They moved to Perth shortly after their wedding and bought a cottage, known as Bermondsay Cottage, in Brown Street, East Perth and there they produced their ten children.

George had a varied career during his life, beginning as a mariner, then a convict warder, then a prison warder in charge of the Northam Road Gang. After leaving the convict service he then became a sailmaker in 1884 and then from 1886 through to 1889 he is listed as a boat builder.

He must have been employed by one of the larger shipyards in Perth as there is no record of him having built any vessels himself.
