Convict Transport Ship Canada's Voyage to New South Wales in 1810
[1] The "Canada" was a merchant ship launched at Shields in 1800. She made five trips transporting convicts to Australia. On two of those trips she was also under charter to the British East India Company (EIC). When she was not transporting convicts Canada traded with the West Indies, and with Canada until c.1832.
John Ward sailed her from Sheerness on 23 March 1810, and she arrived at Port Jackson on 8 September.[2] Of the 122 female convicts she carried, only one died on the voyage.
