Port Fairy is in Australia on the southern coast, between Warrambool and Portland, heading from Melbourne to Adelaide. It was originally named Belfast.

There are a number of things on that ship at the national Archives Kew website.....but all the ones i can see came from an earlier period.....the navy used the same names over and over again.

Is there any way of finding out where it traveled to and from. I know it was in Kent on the 1881 census
Thanks Debbie
