The Skeleton Closet

Buckinghamshire

This was probably the largest sailing ship to enter Port Adelaide in the says of sailing ships. She was built in 1816 at Bombay Dockyards, India by Jamsetjee Bomanjee as a fully rigged ship. She would have been a beautiful sight sailing up the Port River to the wharf.

Voyages to Adelaide

To the best of my knowledge, the Buckinghamshire only made one visit to Adelaide, but brought the largest single contingent of passengers with her on that visit in 1839.

22 March 1839

Departing London on 11 December she arrived in Port Adelaide on 22 March 1839 under the command of Captain Moore and carrying 512 passengers.
