Hello Bill, You wrote, > Any know men off the "Three Bees" arrived 6th August 1814 in your lines. I have the arrival of this ship as 06.05.1814. Correct me if I'm wrong. My man Andrew CALLAGHAN was one of the more 'colourful' characters on board this unfortunate ship. I have more on this CALLAGHAN if you want it. From my notes file: Arrived in Australia on ship "Three Bees" 6/5/1814 as a convict. Ships Master was John WALLIS. Port of departure: Falmouth. TRIAL: County Down March 1813 Term: 7 Years Native place: Down Occupation: Tailor. Age: 30 Height: 5'5½" Complexion ruddy,Hair black,Eyes hazel. Wounded in the left hand by a musket shot, two middle fingers fused. Ticket of Leave 33/552 10th Sept.1833 Source:"Names and Physical Description of Convicts --- 1814" James Mc Clelland ISBN 0 908492 32 4 The following was taken from " Colonial Secretary Papers 1788 - 1825" CALLAGHAN, Andrew. Per "Three Bees",1814 1814 May 11 On list of convicts disembarked from the "Three Bees" & forwarded to Windsor for distribution (Reel 6004;4/3493 p165) If I remember correctly, this ship was destroyed by fire in Sydney Cove in the latter part of May or early June 1814. Maiden voyage too, I understand. Plenty of coverage in the Sydney Gazette at the time, as you would know. How goes your research on these convicts from this ship? You have been at it for quite some time now haven't you? If you can add to or correct any of the above, I would be grateful.
