Elizabeth was launched at Bristol in 1809. She was originally a West Indiaman, but she wrecked in October 1819 at Table Bay while sailing from Bombay to London.

Career

William James, Brice and Co. built Elizabeth at Wapping, but on 3 June 1809, there appeared an advertisement for the sale, at auction, of their stock and trade, including the "hull of a new ship, copper fastened, about 500 tons," etc. Robert Claxton and Sons completed the vessel at Bristol, and she became Elizabeth.Шаблон:Sfnp

James Drew, jnr. acquired a letter of marque on 28 August.[1] Elizabeth appears in the 1810 volume of Lloyd's Register with J. Drew, master, Claxton, owner, and trade Bristol—St Vincent.[2] She then continued to trade with the West Indies.

On 2 February 1812 Elizabeth, Drew, master, was on her way from London to St Vincent when she was driven ashore near Dungeness. A boat's crew from the shore came to her assistance and got her off. They left her safe about five miles off the coast. She had lost an anchor and cable, and was proceeding to Portsmouth.[3] She subsequently underwent repairs for damages.[4] From 1813 to 1814 her master was Power.Шаблон:Sfnp
