Does anyone on the list have any information on the ship the Black Friar? Would appreciate any details at all. Thanks! Linda

I am hopping to find out how I could research this ship. It was a convict ship in 1798-99 with massive losses of life - 95 out of 300 My interest real interest though is off-topic as I am tying to find information on other trips it made. Could somebody assist. Also, would somebody be able to advise how I could access the Lloyds register for this and other ships. Kind regards Ian Thomson 9699 9152 0413 483 247 -----Original Message----- From: LINDA CAREW [mailto:lcarew@vtown.com.au] Sent: Friday, 22 February 2002 11:55 PM To: AUS-IMMIGRATION-SHIPS-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [AUS-IMM-SHIPS] Blackfriar Does anyone on the list have any information on the ship the Black Friar?
