Larkins Crew and Passenger List 1849
« on: Saturday 31 October 09 00:29 UTC (UK) »

Hi,
First time user. I am looking for the Crew and Passenger list for the ship "Larkins" that departed from London June 1849 and arrived into Port Chalmers New Zealand September 1849
My GG Grandfather was on this ship as a crew member, had a shipboard romance with a Margaret Ann Duff and on arrival into Port Chalmers jumped ship and changed his name to Lewis Edwards. We think he may have been  Lars Peterson originally from Sweden. They did get married.

Would any one be able to help.
Many thanks

Thanks Jan, I have looked as this but unfortunatly it doesn't show the crew and I thinks some of the passengers are missing as well.

You could also try emailing the Hocken Library, Dunedin they may have a passenger list.

Thank you Althea,
I had seen this list before and found there was no crew mentioned. We are at a stanstill with this line until we can find some hard facts as to who the GG Grandfather was. I may need someone to search The National Archives in Kew England for me.

Hello Lochanora,

I have had a look at a few shipping sites, there does not seem to be many lists of passengers before 1850. I couldn't find the "Larkins". When I was searching for a list a very kind rootschatter looked on a paid site for me for passengers departing the UK, perhaps if you also post this on another board maybe beginners someone may be able to help.  However I don't know how far back the records go, someone else may know. My ancestor was on a much later ship than yours.

If you post again don't forget to mention you have already posted on the NZ board.

Good luck
