Hello Peter, Jigsaw is a good analogy. I think of the search as a treasure hunt.  Here are a couple of additional bits that I located  through Google. I searched  ship Swanton about 1840   I found the following:  Swanton   Cap't Davenport  departed Liverpool 16 Jan 1843 with 212 LDS immigrants. The church leader was Lorenzo Snow.  They arrived New Orleans 16 March 1843, where they boarded a boat named Amaranth and went to Navaroo via the Mississippi. It is an interesting, first person, account of the voyage.  This is located in  www.ourfamilylegacy.info/files/reeveswilliam1801/immigration.doc The second piece I located was on Google Books.  The book is titles 1400 Historical Dates of the Town and City of Bath, and the Town of Georgetown, by Levi P Lemont, Francie Winter.  You will find info on pages 59-60 about ships built in Bath (including the Swanton.  around pg 53 you will find info about the life and career of Cap't William Swanton who built the Earl of Bute.

Hello, I am busy with a house demolition but may have a slight bit of input to this query.  William Swanton founded the first deep water shipyard in Maine (USA) well before the US Revolutionar y War. The town of origin is Bath, Maine. His shipyard eventually morphed into what is now the Bath Ironworks (or was still a decade ago). The first sailing ship built by Swanton was the Earl of Bute. Bath, Maine has an excellent maritime history muse um, probably online. William is about 9 generations back in my family; but my mother carried the name as her maiden name.  I hope that is of some help.

I have attached the photo in question. It is labelled "Officers of the Duke of Devonshire" taken in 1850s . Photographer is J Brennen. Taken in Derby, my relative came from Derbyshire. Can anybody identify the uniform? Sent from my iPad

Thanks to all who responded. I think I need to scan the photo in - perhaps then somebody will be able to help me. Sent from my iPad

Hi Sue Unfortunately the lists do not accept attachments You either need to attach it to a board post and post a link to it Or put it on one of the free sites like Flickr and send a link to it Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 23/06/2013 12:44, Sue Milne wrote: > I have attached the photo in question. > It is labelled "Officers of the Duke of Devonshire" taken in 1850s . > Photographer is J Brennen.

I have an old photo (0ver 160 yrs old) of the officers of the "duke of Devonshire" sailing ship.. My ancestor is among them and I would be most grateful for any info about the ship or its officers and crew Sue Sent from my iPad

Sorry I can't help with the ship I couldn't find her in the 1861 but thats far from unusual However are you sure about the age of the photo, that would be very early Presumably a studio photo ?

Google gives a long line of HMS Devonshire s of which this seems the most likely *HMS Devonshire* was a 74-gun third rate<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_rate> ship of the line <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ship_of_the_line> of the Royal Navy <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Navy>, launched on 23 September 1812 at Deptford <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deptford> and broken up in 1869. However, there are also loads of MN ships, some full rigged, some half-sail, some fully SS. Do the uniforms indicate a RN or MN training ship ? Is she clearly 'just' a sailing ship ?

Hi Peter With the state of things in what would eventually become Italy one wonders if he might not have gone along the coast to Marseille, from whence, I think, there was a fairly regular packet to Malta, since, once the railway was built from Northern France to the South Coast, this would have been the quickest, and probably most economic way for people, mail and stores etc., to make their way from the UK to Malta. This, I think, would be in addition to the less regular packets or gunboats etc., that the Admiralty used to provide the same sort of support for RN mail and personnel once the UK to Malta and Crete packets were found to be uneconomic. Similarly, there was also something similar from Malta, through to Alexandria, for points East, passengers travelling overland to Suez to connect with packets from India, via the Red Sea, or for those who were in a real hurry, and the cash, overland. Seem to remember we called at Sicily and Malta in 1960, taking the ferry over to Regio, if only to say we'd put a foot on Italian soil - the poverty that prevailed seems to be my abiding memory, along with the large portions of spaghetti. We then went on to Piraeus and down the Suez, to Singapore etc. Paul On Fri, 21 Jun 2013 06:28:33 -0600, Peter Monks <[email protected]> wrote: >Greetings, > >May i thank you for your response, any information is gratefully received. 1849/1850 Google has Lorenzo Snow in northern Italy, Genoa.

Greetings, Many thanks for responding to my query. It is fascinating, we tend to think about current situations. It was an era of development. (I visited some ports in Italy and was based in Malta, but did not visit eastern Med. via the RN) Thanks for adding the Marseille posibility.

Hi Peter, During 1841 and 1842 SWANTON sailed for America under a Captain Caleb Heath, sailing between Liverpool and New York, apparently under the flag of "The New York Line of Packets", or at least sharing the same agent: P. W. Byrnes of Waterloo Road, Liverpool.  I can't find any proper description of the vessel, but in advertising she was then referred to as a Ship (ie. a square rigger); she was clearly American built, and variously described as 1050 tons, or later "700 tons register" - whatever, she was large.  Also then said to have been "built expressly for the convenience and accommodation of Second Cabin, and Steerage Passengers, who will be treated with every care and attention during the Passage by the Officers of the ship.  Fresh water is served out daily." etc.  The last sailing for New York appears to be June 14, 1842, when she carried 270 passengers.  One of the passengers who sailed on the Swanton appears to have been Lawrence Pitkethly, merchant and Chartist from Huddersfield, who had articles about emigration published in The Northern Star and Leeds General Advertiser during June and July 1843. By 26 December 1842 she was commanded by a Captain Davenport, when she entered for loading at Liverpool destined for New Orleans, reportedly sailing by 16 January 1843, and arriving back on March 17. The last mention of Davenport as commander is in July 1844, and she was still arriving at Liverpool from New Orleans in 1849.  I can find no mention of her in Lloyd's Registers of the period, but she may have been built at Bath, Maine - least-ways, she appears to have had Bath connections. All this is not very informative, but it may help!
