About Thursday October Christian I

  • Thursday October Christian (14 October 1790 – 21 April 1831) was the first son of Fletcher Christian (leader of the historical mutiny on the Bounty) and his Tahitian wife Mauatua.
  • He was conceived on Tahiti, and was the first child born on the Pitcairn Islands after the mutineers took refuge on the island.
  • Born on a Thursday in October, he was given his unusual name because Fletcher Christian wanted his son to have "no name that will remind me of England." Thursday, at age 16, married an older native woman, Teraura (Susannah), who had been Ned Young's original consort.
  • She was past 30 at the time of the marriage.
  • The ceremony was carried out with a ring that had belonged to Ned Young.
