Hi, the Copenhagen was the last ship in which Capt Richard Woodget was Mate , it sailed 1874-80 to India during the famine period , presumably with relief supplies , and was also in the “coolie trade to Mauritius “. In 1881 –1885 Capt Woodget was Captain and again made three coolie passages from London to Zanzibar, Port Natal and Mauritius . Post Cutty Sark his last ship was the Coldinghame 1059 tons, in the Australian wool trade. Can anyone supply the details of these three ships, when they were built , who by (?Jock Willis) and any other details . Thanks . --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus
