Mick's answer suggests there may be another slight mystery here! According to: http://www.teesbuiltships.co.uk/dentongray/sandsend1869.htm she was sold foreign in 1908 (is that from where CLIP get the notation register closed?) and then carried the two later names mentioned by Ted. I think this data will be accurate as she started life as owned locally in West Hartlepool by Pyman, and ships of that company have been fairly well researched by local ship enthusiasts. However, neither Teesbuilt nor Miramar (which does not show subsequent history) have details of her eventual fate, so I'm hopeful a Lister can supply fuller information.

Ted finch has her listed in his Fleet List for Pyman, only up to her sale in 1888 to East Steel S.S.Co http://www.mariners-list.com/site_pages.php?section=Shipping+Companies&category=British&page_name=George+Pyman+ Clip takes this info from BT 110/ which shows her register was closed 1908, this only indicates that she left the British Register at this point ( name change would not effect her O.N). She is not in the subsequent Mercantile Navy Lists. Later editions of Lloyds or the Schell Registers might throw up something.
