Biography
watercolourist, surveyor and architect, son of John Hellyer and Betsy, née Maine, of Porchester, Hampshire, arrived in Van Diemen’s Land on 4 March 1826 as architect and surveyor to the newly formed Van Diemen’s Land Company. In October the company set up its headquarters at Circular Head, from which base Hellyer set out on various surveying expeditions. Watercolours such as The Lawn Front, Highfield Circular Head , signed 'Henry Hellyer Surveyor V.D.L. Co. August 1832’ (State Library of Tasmania, Hobart, Tasmania), were done as visual information for his employers and were formerly in the company’s possession. Although officially transferred to the Government Survey Department in May 1832, Hellyer never took up this appointment. He committed suicide at Circular Head in September.
