SAINT MARGARET, 98 ton Brigantine (66'x18'x10'), built 1841 PEI., reg.
1843,
S843016, closed 1853 - Lost at Sea.
Owner: Lawrence O'Brien, Merchant of St. John's.
There is evidence in the record that the ship was registered twice before
as a Schooner to owners in PEI. and then transfered to registry at St. John's
in 1843. Since there is no official # given, this cannot be confirmed,
although the construction date, place and tonnage coincide. Also, the reason for closure in PEI. was given as "Transfered to a New Port - Nfld".
