Allan McLean - journey from Adelaide to Hobart on the Navarino in January 1838 - transcription of ship's manifest.

On 6th Jan 1838 Allan embarked on the barque Navarino (6 mast, 2 gun, 464 ton) under Capt GS Warming, from St Vincent Gulf (near Adelaide) and disembarked on 12th Jan in Hobart (Van Dieman's Land) - a 6 day journey. The passengers were Mathew Flemmingham, D Huges, A McLean, P Gough & R Fitzsymmonds.
This was for purchasing seed wheat and other provisions. The details of his return journey are not known, but the family used the seeds for a 20 acre crop in Hilton (near Adelaide) in 1838 - the first wheat crop in South Australia.
