    3. *new* for TheShipsList website http://www.theshipslist.com/ All the new and updated files and databases have been placed on their own page(s) Find them on the front page in between the big arrows --------------> <--------------- At the bottom of each of these pages I have placed links named " previous month " and " next month " so you are able to navigate back and forth between the monthly *new & updated* pages, as I only keep three months of *new* page links on the Home page. New for September 2010 is . . . o Wrecks: o Wrecks of Steam Ships - 1840-92 - updated Revisiting an old page with additional information and corrections from our own ... Ted Finch ...thanks Ted. o Fleets: o Frank C. Strick & Co. / Strick Line o Holland-Afrika Lijn / Nederlandsch Zuid-Afrikaansche Scheepvaart Maatschappij Strick Line is a biggie ... Holland South Africa Line, not so big, but just as interesting. o Passengers: o John Molson - 23rd trip up, Quebec to Montreal, 1st October 1832 o John Molson - 24th trip up, Quebec to Montreal, 8th October 1832 o John Molson - 25th trip up, 3 Rivers to Montreal, 13th October 1832 o John Molson - 26th trip up, Quebec to Montreal, 23rd October 1832 o ... o ship Malvina Vidal, from Hamburg, to Port Adelaide 17th January 1857 o barque Victoria, from Hamburg, to Port Adelaide 7th February 1857 Four more JOHN MOLSON steamboat passenger lists for 1832. Just five more to complete the year, then I will begin the CHAMBLY, which was a "boat of the second class," so there won't be as many passengers crammed on board, as we found on the JM earlier in the year 800-900 was incredible for vessels which shouldn't have carried more than 300. 1832 was a cholera year, so I can hardly wait to read what the newspapers say ... I imagine people were "outraged," as people seem to be so easily outraged these days. The first two German passenger lists to South Australia for 1857. Once again, really well constructed lists from ALL known, available sources, however, as I often say ... if we have made any errors or if you have additional information about family members aboard, we would love to hear from you. Please share this *new* for TheShipsList website email, with any other list to which you belong if you think it might be of interest or value to those list members (in other words, on-topic).
