Scottish Australian

Scottish Australians are residents of Australia who are fully or partially of Scottish descent.
According to the 2011 Australian census 130,204 Australian residents were born in Scotland,〔 while 1,792,600 claimed Scottish ancestry, either alone or in combination with another ancestry.〔 This is the fourth most commonly nominated ancestry and represents over 8.3% of the total population of Australia.
==History==
The links between Scotland and Australia stretch back to the first British expedition of the ''Endeavour'' under command of Lieutenant James Cook who was himself the son of a Scottish ploughman. Cook navigated and charted the east coast of Australia, making first landfall at Botany Bay on 29 April 1770. His discoveries and reports by Cook's expedition would lead to British settlement of the continent, and during the voyage Cook also named two groups of Pacific islands in honour of Scotland: New Caledonia and the New Hebrides.〔The Scots in Australia (2008) M. Prentis UNSW Press.〕 The first European to die on Australian soil was a Scot; Forbey Sutherland from Orkney, an able seaman died on 30 April 1770 of consumption and was the first to be buried on the colony by Captain Cook, who named Sutherland Point at Botany Bay in his honour.
