19th Century Cork Sutton Mariners, Sailing Ships and Crews

Additional information:

This vessel moved from London to Cork in 1838, and then back to Bristol in 1842.

Captain Augustine Walsh would have been related to Captains Thomas (b.1817) and Jeremiah Walsh (b.1815) of Dungarvan. Augustine was a likely family name since Jeremiah named one of his master mariner sons Edward Augustine Walsh. Captain Jeremiah Walsh was married to a Sutton.
