Re: Schooner "Mana" 1837 Akaroa, NZ, Capt Sweeney - old forum

Posted by Pam jimmycoyot@aol.com on May 02, 2001.

Does anyone have any information to share about the schooner Mana and Capt. Sweeney (possibly my ancestor), out of Akaroa, New Zealand in 1837ish? I found reference to them in an appendix to Rhys Richard's "Murihiku Re-viewed."

The "Mana" was sailing from Akaroa, "taking a shipment of pigs from Moeraki to Mr Fraser's station on Mana Island." I'm not quite sure about the year (1837), but it is the only year mentioned within a few pages of this reference.

Thanks.
pam
