St. George's Parish, Bermuda

Saint George's Parish is one of the nine parishes of Bermuda. It is named after the founder of the Bermuda colony, Admiral Sir George Somers. It is located in the north-easternmost part of the island chain, containing a small part of the main island around Tucker's Town and the Tucker's Town Peninsula, as well as the island of Saint George's Island, and many smaller islands, notably Coney, Paget, Nonsuch, Castle, and Smith's Islands. Technically, Saint George's also includes the island of Saint David's, though this is often considered a separate entity. St. David's Island, and Cooper's Island, and Longbird Island became a single, contiguous landmass during the Second World War construction of what is now L.F. Wade International Airport, formerly a joint USAAF/RAF base, Kindley Field (and subsequently a USAF base, Kindley Air Force Base, then a US Navy air station, NAS Bermuda. The parish is joined to Hamilton Parish in the south, via The Causeway (which, like the Florida Keys in the United States, is a chain of small islands which have been connected by reclaimed land and bridges) and also at Tucker's Town. The parish is unique among those in Bermuda, in that it does not cover exactly 2.3 square miles (6.0 km2). The reason for this is the land reclamation that took place when Kindley Air Force Base was constructed, which expanded the parish's area by some 150 acres (61 hectares) to a little over 2.5 square miles (6.5 km2). It had a population of 5,659 in 2016, representing about 9 percent of the total Bermudan population. Natural features in Saint George's include Castle Harbour, Saint George's Harbour, Saint David's Head, Tobacco Bay, and Ferry Reach. Other notable features of Saint George's include the St. David's Lighthouse, Fort St. Catherine, and the Bermuda Biological Station for Research.

Hawkins Island

Hawkins Island, auch Elizabeth Island genannt, ist eine Insel von Bermuda, gelegen im Großen Sund (Great Sound) etwa drei Kilometer südwestlich der bermudischen Hauptstadt Hamilton. Sie ist in Privatbesitz, zählt aber dennoch verwaltungstechnisch zum Warwick Parish. Hawkins Island ist flach, dicht bewachsen, etwa 450 Meter lang und bis zu 250 Meter breit. Kleinere Gebäude liegen nur an der Südostküste. Die Insel gehört zu einer aus über 20 Inselchen bestehenden Inselkette. Das kleine, eher unscheinbare Hawkins Island, welches nur per Boot erreichbar ist, gilt bei Touristen und Einheimischen, vornehmlich wegen des hier stattfindenden Events „Don't Stop the Carnival Party“, als Bermudas Partyinsel schlechthin.

Hawkins Island, Bermuda

Hawkins Island is a small island within Bermuda's Great Sound. It lies in the southeast of the sound, and is in the north of Warwick Parish. Originally named Elizabeth's or Tatem Island, it was renamed in 1809. Now privately owned by the Cox family, it was formerly the property of the Royal Navy, and was a prisoner of war camp from 1901 to 1902, during the South African War. The camp's watchtower yet stands, having been converted into a home. It is the most easterly of the group of islands stretching across the sound from the Salt Kettle peninsula. References

Ordnance Island

Ordnance Island, manchmal auch Ordinance Island genannt, ist eine sehr kleine Insel im Nordosten von Bermuda. Die Insel liegt im Saint George’s Harbour, keine vierzig Meter vor der Südküste (in Höhe des Marktplatzes King’s Square) der bermudischen Stadt Saint George’s, mit welcher sie heute über eine kleine Brücke verbunden ist. Die etwa 160 Meter lange und 39 Meter breite Insel ist künstlich: Winzige Eilande in der Bucht (Duck Stool Island, Frazer’s Island und Gallows Island) wurden durch Sandaufschüttungen verbunden. Ordnance Island diente einst als Lagerstätte für militärische Ausrüstungen, später als U-Boot-Basis der US-Marine und heute vornehmlich nur noch als Anleger für Kreuzfahrtschiffe. Die Insel zählt zum Gebiet der (kreisfreien) Stadt Saint George’s und gehört daher – wie diese – nicht zum Saint George’s Parish.

Ordnance Island

Ordnance Island is located within the limits of St. George's Town, Bermuda. It lies close to the shore opposite the town square (King's Square), in St. George's Harbour. History The only island in the town, it covers just 1.75 acres (7,100 m2) and was created by reclaiming the land between several small islands which were once situated there. The original islands of Ducking Stool, Frazer's and Gallows were used in the early days of the colony for executions. Ordnance Island became a Royal Army Ordnance Corps (RAOC) depot in the 19th century, supplying gunpowder to forts and artillery batteries around St. George's. Prior to this, munitions had been kept within the town (as at the time of the "Bermuda Gunpowder Plot" in 1775, when 100 barrels of gunpowder were stolen by Bermudans sympathetic to the Continental Congress and sent to the rebellious Americans during the American War of Independence), and on Hen Island, further out in St. George's Harbour. An accidental detonation on Hen Island resulting from a lightning strike broke windows throughout St. George's on 1 November 1812. Ordnance Island is far closer to the town, and a similar explosion here would have been catastrophic. The RAOC operated a second, smaller depot, from a wharf on East Broadway on the outskirts of Hamilton. By the Second World War, the depot had fallen into disuse with the Army and was part of a 99-year lease granted by the United Kingdom to the United States for use as a submarine base from 1942 to 1945. The channel between Ordnance Island and the King's Square was not bridged until after the Second World War. The island is visible as a location in the 1962 film That Touch of Mink, with Cary Grant and Doris Day. At the time, the bridge was clearly wooden. Today, the island is joined to St. George's Island by a concrete bridge. Most of the buildings erected by the Army and the US Navy have been razed. One large Army building (the Storekeeper's House) remained and was refurbished as offices for the Corporation of St. George. The only other buildings on the island are an office of HM Customs used to clear visiting yachts, and a new cruise ship terminal. There is, however, a prominent replica of the Deliverance located on the island. The original was one of the two ships built by the survivors of the Sea Venture, flagship of the Virginia Company, which was wrecked in Bermuda in 1609, accidentally beginning Bermuda's settlement. Ordnance Island was the starting and finishing point of Dodge Morgan's record-breaking 1985–1986 non-stop, solo circumnavigation of the planet aboard the American Promise. The Major Donald H. (Bob) Burns Memorial Park on the island includes the Desmond Hale Fountain statue of Admiral Sir George Somers (credited as the founder of Bermuda, and at the helm of the Sea Venture when she was driven on the reefs) which was unveiled by Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon in 1984, during the 375th anniversary of the shipwrecking. The Memorial Park was unveiled on 20 April 1997 during the Twinning Ceremonies with Lyme Regis. See also United States Navy submarine bases World War II United States Merchant Navy References

Hinson's Island, Bermuda

Hinson's Island is an island in Bermuda with a population above 50. The island has been inhabitaed since the early 17th century and was owned by multiple people under a quit-rent scheme before A. A. Jonson divided the island into lots in the 1940s. History Private ownership The island was most likely owned by John Dorrell in the early 17th century. Richard Norwood recorded the name of the island as Dorrel's Island in his survey of Bermuda taken between 1613 and 1617. Thomas Ackland was the occupant of the island when Norwood conducted his second survey from 1662 to 1663, and Norwood did not use the name Dorrel's Island. In the mid-18th century the island was known as Brown's Island. By 1759, the island was crown land. Samuel Spofferth purchased the island through quit-rent for £625, 13s, 4d on 6 August 1759. Spofferth did not pay this figure and the quit-rent was not discharged until 1946. He died in intestacy and the island was sold by his family to Theodore Godet for £120 in 1775. The island was named after Captain Hinson, who purchased the island in the 1800s and lived there as a hermit after his wife died. Admiralty charts from 1874 and 1894 list the area as Godet Island. Smallpox broke out in Bermuda in 1830, and Henry Hunt offered a house on the island for use as a quarrantine zone according to Sister Jean Kennedy in Biography of a Colonial Town. However, this house was most likely located on Darrell's or Burt's Island. During the Second Boer War around 4,600 prisoners of war were sent to Bermuda. On 8 March 1902, the island was declared a military zone. A boarding school for child prisoners of war was on the island. The boarding school had 180 prisoners in May, but the island was empty by August, and martial law was revoked on 28 October. The Hinson family sold the island to Henry James Cox after the Second Boer War. Henry Hamilton Kitchener, the son of Governor Walter Kitchener, purchased the island from Cox in 1920. Kitchener built two seaplane hangers on the island, the first airbases on Bermuda, and attempted to form a volunteer air force in Bermuda. The last of Kitchener's hangars and barns was torn down in 1955. Kitchener flew a Avro 504 from his airbase in December 1919, the second time an airplane flew over Bermuda. Modern A. A. Jonson purchased the island from Kitchener in 1945. The quit-rent was ended in 1946, and turned the island into freehold property. Johnson had the island surveyed and turned a large portion of it into one-half acre lots. A road was constructed around the island. There were 15 lots sold and 6 houses on the island by 1952. Over 50 people live on the island as of 2026. Transportation A main dock was constructed in the 1950s. A public ferry service has been provided by the government since 1959. Ferry services were reduced by the Ministry of Transport in July 2025. Politics Hinson's Island is represented in the Parliament of Bermuda as a part of the Warwick North East constituency.

Smith’s Parish

Smith’s Parish bezeichnet ein 4,9 km² großes Verwaltungsgebiet von Bermuda mit 5984 Einwohnern (2016). Der in deutschsprachigen Staaten mit einem Landkreis vergleichbare Parish liegt im Nordosten der bermudischen Hauptinsel Grand Bermuda am Südufer des Harrington Sound. Das Gebiet ist leicht hügelig; Town Hill, mit 76 Metern die höchste Erhebung von Bermuda, liegt hier. Nahe der südlichen Atlantikküste befindet sich der Spittal Pond, einer der wenigen Seen in Bermuda. Smith’s Parish grenzt westlich an den Devonshire Parish und östlich an den Hamilton Parish. Das Verwaltungsgebiet ist nach dem englischen Aristokraten Sir Thomas Smith (1558–1625) benannt. Weblinks Keith Archibald Forbes: Bermuda’s Smith’s Parish. In: Bermuda and her Atlantic Islands.

Smith's Parish

Smith's Parish is one of the nine parishes of Bermuda. It is named for English aristocrat Sir Thomas Smith or Smythe (1558–1625). Description It is located in the northeast of the main island, at the southern end of Harrington Sound, the large lagoon close to the main island's northeastern tip. It is joined to Devonshire Parish in the southwest and Hamilton Parish in the northeast. As with most of Bermuda's parishes, it covers just over 2.3 square miles (about 6.0 km² or 1500 acres). It had a population of 5,984 in 2016. Natural features in Smith's include Spittal Pond, John Smith's Beach, Devil's Hole, Gibbet Island, and Portuguese Rock. History Like all of parishes of Bermuda, Smith's was named after one of the nine chief investors of the Somers Isles (Bermuda) Company. In this case, it was named for the Company's first governor, Sir Thomas Smith, who also acted as a governor for the East India Company and treasurer of the Virginia Company. Smith would go on to invest some £60,000 into Bermuda (only £20,000 less than what he invested in the much larger Virginia). Despite this, his contribution to his stake in the colony was minimal, and the area was briefly known as "Harris' Bay". Politics For purposes of national representation, Smith's has been divided into three constituencies (Smith's South, Smith's West and Smith's North), and so has three representatives in Parliament. As of 2003, two of these are members of the UBP party, and one is a member of the PLP party.
