The Roscius (2)
Sailed 19 April 1839 from Liverpool
Arrived June 7, 1839 New York
NB. A number of the many Swaledalers on this
ship, had their passages arranged and some
partially financed, by Robert Bonson. His
own diary also names a few people who do
not appear on this list. The missing names
are Margaret March (3), Sarah March (sucking
child), Robert Hall & Mariah Clarkson.
The fare (at least, that as paid to Robert),
was £5.10s for adults.
