Warning! Migrants who traveled to South Australia in steerage between 1836 and 1841 were not individually named in the ship manifest, only the small number of passengers who traveled in cabins. Different researchers have reconstructed passenger lists from newspaper reports and family histories. This page was created to compare and collate different lists of German passengers on board the Bengalee. Some errors are possible. Please feedback any suggestions or corrections to Steve Thomas.
