German vinedressers in Camden

Brought to Australia by the Macarthur family, to tend the vineyards on their Camden estate, the German immigrants of 1838 were the first foreign immigrants admitted under the 'bounty' scheme. Their families prospered and spread from Camden around New South Wales.

Justus, Johann

A vinedresser who brought his family to Camden in 1838, Johann Justus (later John Justice) was one of Sydney's earliest German-born immigrants.
