Joseph Johns (February 1826 – 13 August 1900), better known as Moondyne Joe, was an English convict and Western Australia's best-known bushranger. Born into poor and relatively difficult circumstances, he became something of a petty criminal robber with a strong sense of self-determination. He is remembered as a person who had escaped multiple times from prison.
As Moondyne passed away of senile dementia in the Fremantle Lunatic Asylum and not like some other well-known Bushrangers... there is no doubt this was not the one that got him.
