Hello Listers As I've forgotten whether I should post to Mariners or TSL, I'm sending this to both. The "City of Manchester" arrived in Melbourne (Port Phillip), Victoria, Australia on 23 Sep 1851 having left the UK - possibly one port being Plymouth. Would anyone have any information of where in the UK and when this vessel departed on this voyage, please? My ggf was a passenger. Many thanks. Pam Beaudesert, Queensland, Australia
