- Abstract
- Sometime in the late 1890s Edward Andren, a sailor from Gothenburg in Sweden, jumped off a ship anchored on the northern coast of New South Wales. One of Australia's long line of unauthorised arrivals, Seaman Andren was apprehended and deported. But he tried again, and this time he wasn't captured. After settling in rural NSW, he became an Australian citizen---according to family legend---in 1903.
