The first company bearing the name "White Star Line" was founded in Liverpool, England, by John Pilkington and Henry Wilson in 1845. It focused on the UK–Australia trade, which increased following the discovery of gold in Australia. The fleet initially consisted of the chartered sailing ships RMS "Tayleur", "Blue Jacket", "White Star", "Red Jacket", "Ellen", "Ben Nevis", "Emma", "Mermaid" and "Iowa". "Tayleur", the largest ship of its day, was wrecked on its maiden voyage to Australia at Lambay Island, near Ireland, a disaster that haunted the company for years.
