Caledonia was launched at Sunderland in 1815. She was initially an East Indiaman, sailing between England and Bombay under a license from the British East India Company (EIC). In 1820 and again in 1822 she transported convicts to Van Diemen's Land (Tasmania). After about 1825 she became a West Indiaman. Her crew abandoned her at sea on 28 August 1832 in a leaky state.

Career

Caledonia first appeared in Lloyd's Register in the 1816 volume with Rodgers, master, Laing & Co., owner, and trade London–India.[1]

Caledonia, Roberts, master, another voyage to Bombay, leaving on 20 November 1818. In 1822 Lloyd's Register showed Carns (or Carnes) replacing Roberts as master, however, Carns had replaced Roberts some years earlier.
