Research Notes
Re errors in emigration sources: A major genealogical site's citation incorrectly lists 31 Oct as arrival at Brisbane, through use of a Provisioning Check passenger list carried out at Melbourne. A correction has been submitted, but the auto-reply says this may take some time. Noted 11 Dec 2022 by Alan Salt
