A List Of The Cumberland Shipping, Corrected To February 1840, by William Sawyers, Comptroller Of Her Majesty's Customs At The Port Of Whitehaven
Notes
1. The type of vessel is missing for the
"Earl of Harewood".
2. In the original, the ship type is abbreviated - thus "Sl" -
sloop. The Princess Charlotte has "S" only, perhaps an error.
