The Rose of Sharon
A wooden fully rigged sailing ship. The builder is currently unknown.
The vessel left Southampton for Australia on 10 January 1955, William Forsyth in command (accompanied by his wife).
The Rose of Sharon arrived at Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, on Apl. 13, 1855, after a passage of 93 days.
She carried 365 immigrants, primarily agricultural workers, nearly all of whom were English. (Many were emigrants
despatched by Public Funds to New South Wales)
En route: The vessel encountered a hurricane which caused considerable damage to the ship. The ship's carpenter
was swept overboard & lost. The 3rd & 4th mates deserted the ship after arrival in Australia as also did what would
seem to be two sailors. The sailors were caught - one of them was returned to the ship while the other was sentenced
to 13 weeks imprisonment.
