Pitcairn's Population

Who and how many people are living on Pitcairn Island today? What do the Pitcairn people look like? The answer to “how many?” changes frequently as one ship arrives bringing either returning Pitcairners or visitors, and another ship takes Pitcairners or visitors from the Island.

Thanks to the hard work of Pitcairner Nadine Christian, the list below gives particulars on each person on the Island, and includes photographs of many of them. Pitcairn’s population information is updated each year in the December issue of the Pitcairn Miscellany, the Island newspaper which circulates throughout the world.

The list was updated by Nadine Christian on May 13, 2005.
