	Philip Gidley King (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Philip Gidley King (23 April 1758 - 3 September 1808) was an English naval officer and colonial administrator.
		On 6 March 1788, King and his party landed with difficulty, owing to the lack of a suitable harbour, and set about building huts, clearing the land, planting crops, and resisting the ravages of grubs, salt air and hurricanes.
		King, who had probably arranged the marriage, also arranged for their two sons to be educated in England, where they became officers in the navy.

	Norfolk Island - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		As early as 1794 King suggested its closure as a penal settlement as it was too remote and difficult for shipping, and too costly to maintain.
		Philip Island, the second largest island of the territory, is located at 29°07′S 167°57′E, several kilometres south of the main island.
		The vegetation of Philip Island was devastated due to the introduction during the penal era of pest animals such as pigs and rabbits, giving it a red-brown colour as viewed from Norfolk; however, pest control and remediation work by park staff has recently brought some improvement to the Philip Island environment.

		King's recall was probably due to Macarthur having been able to give his version of the trouble with the officers, while King had no opportunity of saying anything in rebuttal.

		King married when a young man Harriet, daughter of Christopher Lethbridge of Launceston, Cornwall, who survived him with several children, of whom the eldest was Philip Gidley King (1817-1904).

		King fined the aggrieved husband twenty shillings, which, he hoped, "would convince the soldier that he was not to be insulted with impunity." It did no such thing; the soldiers felt Dring should have been flogged.
		In January 1794, King learned from a convict informer that the soldiers had taken an oath "not to suffer any of their comrades to be punished for an offence against a convict any more"; they would rise, kill Dring, and put all the prisoners to death.
		Quelling this, King realized, would be "a very delicate affair"; one did not lightly disarm, on mere suspicion, a whole detachment of soldiers who owed their allegiance to a governor, himself their commanding officer, only two weeks' sail away on the Australian mainland.
