Date: 1841-1842 Note:

From vol. 1, no. 1 (7 October, 1841) - vol. 1, no. 14 (6 January, 1842), James Noble and Edward Alcock appear on the publication details at the end of each issue as editor, publisher, proprietor and printer with some interchange of roles. From vol. 1, no. 15 (13 January, 1842), the role of editor is dropped from the publication details possibly as a protest. (See column 'Sir George Gipps and the Press', 2 December, 1841). For the rest of the life of the paper the publication details contain various names in various roles except for that of editor (see notes below).

A notice in the issue of vol. 2, no. 71 (26 October, 1842) advertised the disposal of the copyright of the paper 'on reasonable terms to any party or parties desirous of embarking in such an undertaking, with the superior facilities which the Colonial Observer at present affords'. The notice is signed by J. H. Baillie, Observer Office, indicating that Baillie had a role at the paper before his name first appears in the publication details of the vol. 2, no. 97 (25 January, 1843) issue. F. A. Alcock and Robert Barr appear in various roles until the paper was first discontined at the end of September, 1843. Robert Barr and Robert Kitchen appear on the publication details from the paper's re-emergence to its final demise in December, 1844.
