A John Jenkins was aboard the "Burlington" which left Plymouth 28 October 1856 and arrived Port Adelaide 13 Feb 1857. John was a 19 yo miner from Cornwall. The note at the end of his entry says "Melbourne". The reference for the Biographical Index South Australia is 837/3.
Can anyone provide more detail please?

Australia / Passenger to Victoria John JENKINS
« on: Tuesday 06 July 10 03:02 BST (UK)  »
John JENKINS b. 1839 Congdon's Shop, North Hill, Cornwall. Parents Charles and Mary Ann Morrish. In 1851 Census the family had moved to East Stonehouse, Plymouth. John married in Majorca, Victoria 1865. An older married sister Elizabeth Betsey James, husband and two children went to South Australia on "Harry Lorraquer" in 1849. John not with them. Have looked in the obvious places I believe, and wonder if someone more skilled could find when and how John came to Victoria.
