The convict ship "Phoebe Dunbar" left Kingstown, Ireland on 2nd June 1853 bound for the Swan River Colony. She carried the eleventh of thirty seven shipments of male convicts destined for Western Australia. The non-stop voyage took eighty nine days. The "Phoebe Dunbar" arrived in Fremantle on 30th August 1853 with ninety three passengers and 286 convicts [Erickson]. The Captain was T. Michie and the Surgeon was John W. Bowler. http://members.iinet.net.au/~perthdps/convicts/con-wa10.html

Thanks for your comment, Jenn.

One of the Moderators, who will remain nameless, commented on the combination of lack of information and poor quality of information for people attempting to find their ancestors on the Irish boards. I'm doing my best to reply to those members who have posted queries on the Irish boards and have been patiently waiting for a reply. Finding such sites as the one about the "Phoebe Dunbar" is one of the ways that can assist them in their search.
