Ozships does not have any arrival in 1852 for any vessel named Europa.

This does not agree with 224 tons and may or may not be the vessel Charles arrived on.

Europa. Brig, 190 tons. # 37888. Built at Maitland, UK, 1856; reg. Port Adelaide 9/1864. Lbd 108.2 x 25.5 x 12.1 ft. Captain George F. Graham. Newcastle to Port Adelaide with coal, was forced to seek shelter under King Island, however the anchors dragged in a squall and she went ashore on Sea Elephant Island, off King Island, 17 November 1867. Despite a considerable quantity of the cargo being jettisoned, finally settled onto the rocks and filled with water. The crew escaped unharmed in the boats. The master and three men walked overland to where the Netherby salvage party had been working, but on arrival found that the salvagers had left for Melbourne. They continued on to Cape Wickham where a message was sent to Melbourne. The Victorian Government sent its SS Pharos to rescue the castaways. [TS1],[LK - 224 tons. Built in Aberdeen, 1834],[LV]

Disputed date and place it was built and the tonnage.

The Europa of 224 tons built Aberdeen is not listed to have sailed to Boston or New York or Hobart.

There seems to be no mention in Trove of the tonnage of the Europa that arrived in Hobart from New York/Boston.

Probably not on the Europa from Liverpool. The Europa of 224 tons of Aberdeen does not seem to have travelled to Boston or Hobart leaving the Europa of unknown tonnage that did travel from US east coast to Hobart in 1852.

Thanks Geoff.

I tried finding the family in Departures from Tasmania but kept getting Walker instead of Walter.

Thanks Geoff.

There is something odd re the 1888 death reg. No date hits when I search Sep 1887 - Jan 1889.

The date in the index is 7 Feb 1863
