The Original Settlers
Since the establishment of the first permanent settlement in 1659 by the East India Company , the island has maintained a substantial and healthy population. The first settlers were primarily English, but there were also Dutch and Portuguese who increased the island's labour force by the importation of slaves from the East Indies and Madagascar. These were later augmented by slaves from the Gold Coast of Africa. From 1679, passing ships were 'taxed' one Madagascaran slave, and slaves were also brought in from Bombay and the Maldives. In 1806, the East India Company brought in 650 Cantonese slaves as gardeners, mechanics and builders: this accounts for the oriental appearance of some islanders. Following the abolition of the slave trade in Britain and St Helena in 1832 there was a further influx of Africans onto the island as Royal Navy ships captured the slave ships of other nations: the slaves were put ashore on St Helena for hospital treatment before returning to Africa.

GEOGRAPHY St Helena is situated in the South Atlantic Ocean at longitude 5° 45' west and latitude 16° 00' south. The nearest land is Ascension Island which lies 703 miles to the north west; it is one of the island’s dependencies. The other dependency, Tristan da Cunha, lies 1500 miles to the south west. St Helena is 1200 miles from the west coast of Africa and 1800 miles from the east coast of South America. The nearest place of importance to St Helena is Cape Town which lies 1700 miles to the south east. St Helena has an area of 47 square miles; it is 10½ miles long and 6½ miles wide. It is wholly volcanic in origin and rocky and mountainous almost everywhere along its coastal range. Rising dramatically from the South Atlantic the island has sheer barren cliffs that are intersected with deep valleys which slope steeply from the central ridges. In contrast with the barren coastal areas the interior contains an abundant growth of lush semi-tropical vegetation. Between its highest point (2,685 ft) and the 1000 ft contour the island maintains it grasslands, pastures and forests. At lower contours the terrain becomes drier and almost barren except for those valleys that carry small streams of water from the central ridges to the sea.

This site makes extensive use of Cascading Style Sheets : to view it at its best, please ensure your browser supports style sheets and that they are enabled. The South Atlantic and Southern Ocean contain a number of small islands, almost all of which are volcanic in origin. These small dots of land in a vast windswept ocean are remote, and often inhospitable, but represent a valuable resource, as they are the only places where many rare plant, bird and mammal species can breed. Like Iceland and The Azores, many project from oceanic ridges. These pages are a reference to these fascinating islands, and will grow as I research and condense the available information.

St Helena is famous as the island to which the Emperor Napoleon was exiled: he eventually died there in 1821. The island was subsequently used as a place of exile for Zulu warriors during the Zulu wars, and for Boer prisoners during the Boer wars at the turn of the 20th century.
