Vaiben Solomon was a Jewish-English convict who, with his brother Emanuel, was transported for larceny to New South Wales in 1818.
Despite further brushes with the law, Solomon and his brother seized business opportunities and became prosperous Sydney merchants. The brothers were later joined by more of their siblings, and became patriarchs of a family line that would go on to make its mark on Australian business and politics, particularly in New South Wales and South Australia.
