Hello List, Wondering if someone may be able to help me, I just received a death certificate for my husband's GG/Grandfather who died at Geelong in 1868, and it states that he and family arrived at PORTLAND around 1855 on the ship "INDIAN ?". I cannot understand the last name of the ship. Would anyone please have any ideas and what it could be. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. Regards Pat
