Hi John, The answer to your question is to be found not in the haystack but in 3 books by Ian Nicholson "Log of Logs" Vols 1, 2 & funnily enough, 3. These are widely available at libraries and genealogy societies etc, or on interloan I should imagine. :-) Regards Pam An Aussie transplanted to Rotorua, NZ.

To help me in my research of the emigrant ship Tantivy, I am asking whether anyone has an old diary or letter or any other material from long-gone relatives pertaining to any of the three voyages Tantivy made to Australia with immigrants -- anything that gives any insights into the voyages, especially the 1854 to Sydney.
