    1. Ships - Lloyds, Garland & Parland
    2. Perplexed
    3. I have family who arrived on all of these ships. The Galvins (James and Mary (Connor) came with 3 children - Patrick, Michael and Mary) and arrived in Sydney on the Lloyds on 29/6/1850 via Plymouth. They were all born in Ennis in Co Clare Ireland. James and Jean Whiteford (Wylie) & 2 children arrived in Melbourne on the Garland on 4/7/1852. They were respectively from Argyllshire and Ayrshire and had married and lived in Campbeltown in Argyllshire prior to emigration. Heinrich Bouffier and Catherine(a) (Web(b)er and their son arrived in Morpeth on 5/7/1849. Heinrich was from Eltville on the Rhine River and Catherine(a) from Erbach near Camberg. I know the Whitefords were assisted immigrants and the Bouffiers were Bounty immigrants. I am interested in finding out whether there is additional information about the ships other than that provided in the State records (NSW and Vic). I have looked up a number of shipping sites, but basically can only find ships built or operating after the 1860s. I am interested in knowing where these ships sailed from for these trips as well as what life would have been like for the duration of the trip. Any information appreciated. Thanks
