Earl of Buckinghamshire was built at Montreal in 1814. She sailed to Britain and made two voyages to India. She then started trading between Liverpool and North America. In 1821 she carried some 600 settlers from Greenock to Quebec. Her crew abandoned her in the North Atlantic in October 1822 and she was wrecked in November when she drifted ashore at Galway Bay, Ireland.

Career

Earl of Buckinghamshire first appeared in Lloyd's List (LR) in 1815 with M'Donald, master, Hunter & Co., owner, and trade London–Quebec.[1]

Earl of Buckinghamshire was re-registered at Greenock, Scotland on 2 March 2, 1816 at (Port) No. 12.[2] In 1816 LR showed her master changing from M'Donald to R. Christian, and her trade from Greenock–Montreal to Greenock–Bombay.

The British East India Company (EIC) had lost its monopoly on the trade between Britain and India in 1813, and many shipowners sailed their vessels in the trade. Her owners applied for a licence on 6 March 1816 and received it the same day.Шаблон:Sfnp
